I am not too far from Daytona, if anyone needs anything from around that area I can help tonight or tomorrow or Sunday
@robert843 are you taking the boat or the ski?

 

[Ramblin Wreck]

Are there any Delorme/Spots in the Saturday or Sunday groups? If so, would you mind posting your link as we definitely want to follow the progress.

If I make it would be the boat but the chances are very slim I can go right now I will know for sure in the next 4-5 hours but it's doubtful. Plus I think @Rod5 will do just fine getting that group together.

We are still shooting for Saturday. My bf is basically at south of the border with the boat right now trying to meet with @Betik. He’s been up over 24 hours. Trying to get there but not sure if it will make it by sat am but trying hard. If he can meet with Betik then he can get some sleep and hopefully make it by Saturday.

If he is at South of the Border, he should be able to make it (fingers crossed). Have him take a 2 hour power nap and then get back on the road. I survived with a 6 pack redbull on the journey, but will not recommend it to others.

@robert843 would you be going out and then back state side what day, or staying for the week?

Depending on your time frame if wanted company I could re arrange my schedule possibly

I do not have any way to get landing cards to anyone crossing before Tuesday.

If anyone who is crossing Saturday can stop by

Bahamas Ministry Of Tourism
1200 S Pine Island RdPlantation, FL 33324

(954) 236-9292

today and pickup landing cards that would be helpful to everyone crossing Saturday.

I would call in advance of going and pickup 100 landing cards.

Otherwise they are available in Bimini.

@Ryuc14911, hopefully someone in your Sunday group can pick some up.

It is not a big deal either way, it just saves time in Bimini if you complete them in advance.

With our crossing days split I recommend those that are comfortable tying up at Big Game Club clear at Big Game club while those who are not clear at Bimini Sands / the South Bimini Airport.

Have you seen the suggestions of ordering groceries online for pickup?

The Publix near Harbour Towne is a an option. Zip code 33004.

I bet Susan can order while you drive.

@robert843 you can always invite yourself to some else’s boat .......

@Betik, the alternative perspective is that you are going significantly out of your way to help get a boat to Bimini.

Thank you.

Who’s boat can I invite myself to? Keep in mind, I can’t drive it. Well actually, I can. I can drive it...I mean it’s always better to practice on someone else’s, right???
