    Enjoyed the video mates! I figured the Big Game Club would have all sorts of amenities like any big marina. The laundromat looked off site? Glad you scored a courtesy flag! Great video underwater! Getting me excited for our trip to the Bahamas in 119 days!

  • @moriver3857
    @moriver3857 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Great video, and thanks for sharing it as I will be repositioning my boat to the ABC islands from the US and Bimini is one of my stops. My passage will be done in stages, as I can't do it all at once since I'm still in the workforce and will be either single-handed,or short-handed, and will leave the boat for a week or so at various locations, ( T&C, GTK, RD, PR) so this video is a great heads up for me, in addition in avoiding hurricane season as well. The cell phone is crucial indeed. I have the fortune of working for an airline so I've been flying in and out of various islands finding out the logistical issues, to minimize potential boat and personal issues. Enjoy the cruising, stay safe and fair winds.

    The Compleat Angler was way cool. We were there in 1987, before it burned, and got a tour of the place from Ozzie Brown. But, the Bimini Big Game Club was still pretty cool back then, too. They had a bartender named Cooper back then, who had served Hemingway drinks. It's a lot different these days.

Wish you would get back to it. BTW, there are SO many Catalina 30's out there (I have 2). Built in audience. We would all love to see how the boat does on the open water. Maybe next year?

    If your Catalina is working out well, that opens up my search.

    I'm curious, at the start of the episode the drone footage showed you tied off to a bouy on your port quarter and also to the pontoon on your port bow as well as being tied on the starboard side. Why not just tie off on the starboard side with fenders?, Also, why didn't you reverse into the slip?

      It's THRIVING, but really still intact and 100% functional. Just some slight wear on the wheels which would be expected. Only downside is that when not full of supplies (on the way to the store) it only tows well in the open position but that's not really a problem. Definitely the best cart we saw out there.
