The Bahamas, Again.
 

Took the Seacraft (on it's own bottom) over to the Bimini/Cat Cay area this w/e. Weather was great, fishing not so much. Did get a bunch of conch and lobster though. Beaches were grand as ever, little crowded in some areas.
Once again, back to reality.

Again.......my jealous meter is pegged to the max!!!! Enough is enough.....no mas!! ;) ;)

Re: The Bahamas, Again.
 

It was a great w/e. Weather was great, both crossings where good. Fishing sucked, but the diving made up for it. Good way to end the summer. Boat ran great, two people, all the c---!, and for a 20' boat it was a great ride. Unfortunatly I see a 25' something on the horizon. hmmmmmmmmmmm-----

Re: The Bahamas, Again.
 

I would have to agree with DonV Jelious to the max lol. So u mad the crossing on the 20 how was the gas consumption ? Would love to make it one day on my 20 where did u come out from ?

Re: The Bahamas, Again.
 

I've done the crossing numerous times in the 20', love it.
I burn 20 gals each way, running 2600 or so, cruising between 18-22 kts. I usually stop and fish for a bit.

Re: The Bahamas, Again.
 

Ooops. sorry, I run out of Lauderdale to Cat.

Re: The Bahamas, Again.
 

Did you mean 3600?? My 23'er won't even get on plane at 2600,however at 3600 it's close to 20 mph or so.

Re: The Bahamas, Again.
 

Nope, 2600, crusing 22 kts, give or take, at 2400 I'm doing 18 kts, at 3600 I'm doing (hell I don't know what I'm doing, because if it's in the Gulfstream I'm holding on!)and after 3600, I'm looking at the fuel gauge! I do know that when I first redid it, I achieved 50 kts, haven't seen that since, I'm more inclined to keep the 99' two banger in one piece.

Re: The Bahamas, Again.
 

22kts @ 2600 man I need a 200hp

Re: The Bahamas, Again.
 

Yea, she's a good running boat. I think at 3600 I'm somewhere in the 32kt range. Which is a good cruise in calmer water.
