For those of you who are looking at Saturday, here is what limited things I can offer.
I crossed from WPB to West End and on to Treasure Cay last summer in so-so weather and ran into a summer storm, so even though this is my first visit to Bimini, it is not my first crossing.
I have a 30' cabin cruiser, with fixed VHF, handheld VHF, chart plotter, 160 gallon tank, and I will try to get my XM Weather activated. I also have an EPIRB, TowBoat US Gold, and a Spot for which I will post a link prior to departure.
At this moment I am unsure what time we would be targeting. Most of it depends on how fast we can get there, splashed, and parked etc. At this moment I envision a departure sometime between 9am and 12pm, but that is subject to change. We will most likely attempt to clear customs and immigration at Big Game.
I do NOT have the same contacts and connections etc that Bruce has, so I can't help much with accommodations and such. Please make sure you have this arranged prior to departure, or be ready to improvise once we get there.
