Default 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.

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-----

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.

Do the girls ever get jealous when they find out that you took someone else to the Bahamas?

That umbrella top is starting to grow on me.

Funny story that.
The tops aren't for everyone, but it suits my needs perfectly, I have beat the tar out of it and it's still hanging in there.
