JetBoaters.net Bimini Fling July 10th to 15th 2017

Our group reservation link for the Bahia Mar DoubleTree is finally ready. You can book at http://doubletree.hilton.com/en/dt/groups/personalized/F/FLLBMDT-JET-20170706/index.jhtml

The group rate is $109 for a partial ocean view. Self parking is discounted to $15 although I doubt the parking discount will extend to boats and trailers. My total was $120.99 including taxes.

The form allows for and defaults to booking 3 days before and after the 9th to 10th stay that we need. You will save a little time if you change that on the first pass.

If you already have a reservation you can call 1-954-764-2233 using the group name JetBoaters and group code JET to convert your reservation to the group which I believe will save you around $50 over the published rates I have seen.

@MrMoose has posted reservation instructions for discounted slips at the Bahia Mar Yachting Center in this post https://jetboaters.net/threads/jetb...y-10th-to-15th-2017.11966/page-46#post-215832

annddd I got an authorization letter to fly a drone in Bahama's Airspace!
 
@Murf'n'surf, did you want to come hang out at Bahia Mar? If so you might as well get in on the discounted rooms. Also if you are thinking about going to Bimini I know of an ocean front one bedroom that is about to open up.

@Bruce - the link is not working. did they say when it should be up and running?

Strangely @Glen had two 404 errors before the link worked for him. Please try it again. Must be an issue with Hilton's system and perhaps the reason that it took so long to get the link setup.

Alternately you can call 1-954-764-2233 using the group name JetBoaters and group code JET to book your room.
 
@Glen, I believe Hilton is having issues with their Content Distribution Network. Our form must exist on some CDN servers but not on others. Perhaps you could pick up a new client?

It's tempting to pull the trigger! Gotta get my passport renewed first...
 
Here's an updated form for the Bahia Mar Marina reservation. The rate is confirmed at $1.25/foot with no minimum. So a 24 foot boat will cost $30 plus tax.
Please print it, fill it out, circle your arrival date, and send it or fax it to Stephanie Fot at Bahia Mar Marina:
SFot@rcibahiamar.com
Tel: (954) 627-6309 Fax: (954) 627-6356

Other related notes from Stephanie:
1. As for trailers it is $10/axle/day while the vessel is here, if the vessel departs and the trailer remains it is $50/day.
2. Jet skis are $25 per night and they must share a slip with another vessel.
I thought we were going to be dropping trailers and truck in another spot for launching and storage during the trip?

Also, I really only need to book the 9th correct? Are they open to adding the 8th at that rate with only a day notice?
What does most of the group do on the way back? I only have through Monday off of work so I gotta BOOGIE!

We launch and leave trucks and trailers at HarborTowne.

The discount is only good for bookings before June 6th.

Most leave for home after arriving back at HarborTowne.

Yea, likely use Akamai.
So 1998 (and it shows ;-)
 
I already had reservations and then called and said that there was NO availability. So I am stuck with the $151 I am coming in on the 8th...

I assume this is for the Bahia Mar DoubleTree reservations. The link (http://doubletree.hilton.com/en/dt/groups/personalized/F/FLLBMDT-JET-20170706/index.jhtml) is working for booking online at the discounted rate and the hotel has plenty of availability?

If you can cancel your current booking I would book online then cancel your current reservations. If not perhaps try calling again?
 
I canceled the first one and went on line work smooth as silk..... all signed up now. Now I can afford to drink more!!!
 
@Skroggy66, you said you are arriving on the 8th. Are you planning to arrive by boat or with your truck and trailer on the 8th? They charge per axle for trailer parking.
