June 2018 Bimini Crossing Watch Party

[Eric Ballard]

The July group has a lot to do to beat the weather for this Crossing.

 

[Eric Ballard]

Is there any word on the 19 footer? I didn’t know when they where crossing.

 

[Eric Ballard]

@robert843 just went through the inlet......

 

[rsrlegends]

Did you guys just see the skis and a white AR240 blow by the camera view at Port Everglades?

 

[Eric Ballard]

That was @robert843 on the 24, not sure who was on the ski. They went blasting out!

 

[Wisefam22]

All I am doing is blasting up 75 north to Atlant.

I want a refund. This episode of the Bimini crossing blows.

@bronze_10 Damn, you have a fast boat...or your tow rig/trailer got those #'s. LOL. All that buffing you did before the trip must have decreased the aerodynamic drag.

 

[Bluewater272]

95? Yikes, lol.

 

[bronze_10]

Red boats go faster! Lol

 

[Amar Nanduri]

It was a smooth crossing. We were doing an average of 36-38 mph. Stopped midway and me, Betik and @Valerie jumped in the ocean and enjoy the deep blue waters. @Betik kicked a$$ in getting the video of the crossing. I am sure we will have some amazing videos this time. Betik tstarted getting restless and wanted some excitement, so he was banned to sit on the front the last few miles. This should tell you about the crossing conditions.

Awesome pictures @Amar Nanduri !

 

[Amar Nanduri]

My son and daughter drove part of the way when nearer to Bimini.

 

[Wisefam22]

I was about to say post pics or the crossing is trash and yall spoofed GPS... enjoy your week.

 

[Amar Nanduri]

Proof of speeds and cruising. We were that comfortable. The only excitement came from swimming in the ocean at mid point.

Great call with changing the crossing to today. Perfect conditions. Have fun this week guys!

You said ORANGE JB shirt? It would go well with my orange boat. How do I get one? Who is selling that swag? Not a hijack.

I don't know what everyone is saying about an easy crossing!!! I'm just gonna say i am glade i binge watched Deadliest Catch before this trip. Here is a small clip of the rough conditions we endured for approximately two whole hours!!!

@Eric Ballard you were right... there is no way your 19 footer would have made it!!
