I'm generating good karma, hoping that it will change the forecast. Found an iPhone in the WalMart parking lot this morning and turned it in to the lost and found.

Most have vacation time off and friends or family coming that make it these dates or nothing. If the weather does not improve my family will plan to go to Bimini later in the year and will extend invitations to join us to everyone when we do.

I think they edited this a bit I swear they pretty much had to take that wave at the 1:34 mark over the bow. If you look they drive into that wave the next second they are closer to the inlet marker I think they cut that out to make it look better.

They did & you're right on the editing. I didn't catch the editing first time I watched till you mentioned it, but did see the water running across the deck

I agree....you can see the water in the boat right after the point they cut to.
