As you and I both know @Bruce with the winds the way they are that forecast of 1.5ft will probably not hold true they would still probably have a bumpy ride across the bank but who knows what the tongue will look like.@robert843, @Valerie, tomorrow's wave forecast looks good at less than 1.5' but the the wind is closer to 15 MPH than I would like.
Groups will be assigned to spread out equipment and experience levels amongst the groups.Are you doing a lottery for group positions?
Did you get confirmation that Customs is coming to the sands?Groups will be assigned to spread out equipment and experience levels amongst the groups.
No group is better than any other with the exception that the first group out has the highest risk. Once we are in Bimini we will dock and wait for customs to come to us. The order of check in will have more to do with the location of your condo than when you arrive.
Last year I was the first to Bimini and the last back to the US. I was not the first to clear into Bimini or the last to clear into the US.
Have a look at this post for what should happen https://jetboaters.net/threads/jetboaters-net-bimini-fling-july-10th-to-15th-2017.11966/page-99#post-241096Did you get confirmation that Customs is coming to the sands?
Thanks for the clarification. Amazed by the level of effort you guys have put into this for all of us.Groups will be assigned to spread out equipment and experience levels amongst the groups.

I saw some pics it looks like the other crew did eventually make it to Nassau.Man it's quiet in here!!!
Theres a group crossing Thursday morning.....please keep them in your thoughts for a smooth uneventful trip!
Having something yellow to fly will be important this year as we will pull into Bimini Sands, hopefully to our assigned dockage, then wait for customs and immigrations to come to our boats. Not having a yellow flag will likely mean that you clear last.Are most people buying yellow flags for when we arrive and awaiting for customs? I see Amazon has them for $5
