Yup I was there from the 19th-22nd. I wonder where he stayed. I was at the Big Game Club and partied on the docks pretty much every night and didn't see Jon. It is always a blast over there, I'm going back on August 9th.

Re: Bimini Bound on Saturday

The weather was fantastic. It was a little bumpy the first half of the trip over on Thursday, it was a solid 2-4 with a 5 in every so often. No big deal just took an extra 20-30 mins to get there. It was sunny skies and flat seas all weekend, we cought a few fish but drank a lot. Yes, we partied at Big Johns and The End Of The World bar as well as on the docks. I took only one pic of the boat at the docks and a buddy took one of us at Honeymoon Harbor. To drunk to work the camera. I'll post them in the photo section.

I put the only two pics I got up in the Misc Boating section.

I'm going back on the 9th of August, I make sure to take some good pics.

Re: Bimini Bound on Saturday

I actually couldn't find a place in Bimini, so we went to Lucaya instead. Beautiful crossing, but the flood gates really opened up on the way home. We caught a fair amount of Snapper, a few Dolphin and a small green-eye shark. I can tell you this- be sure that you have all of your paperwork in order when clearing- . I just enrolled in the local boater program- keeps you from needing to clear in person in the future: CBP Announces Local Boater Option for Florida Boaters - CBP.gov
