Thought I'd just throw this out here to see if there's any interest. I'll be running over to Bimini in the Bahamas again (4th time) probably late June or early July 2019, leaving port everglades Florida. If anyone would like to go let me know and we will start to get some solid dates sorted out. Phil.

Man, that's a trip I'd love to do. Unfortunately this year, I have a full summer between planned vacation (already booked the place) and two kids with summer activities and one about to head to college. Maybe 2021?

We might take a year off in 2020 and 2021 might go to the Abaco's instead of Bimini, now that would be a trip. Wife isn't keen on the 6 hour boat ride so she might fly in. Or we'll go to Bimini again.

I watched a fishing show done at a spot called Memory Rock in Bimini yesterday. They were catching cobia, scamp, mutton snapper, yellowtail and more. Really made me want to go this year but I can't get my wife to go anywhere.

I know you'd have a good time if you could go.

I know you'd have a good time if you could go. That's probably the one. I watch a lot of different fishing shows and don't remember which one this one was but I think I remember them mentioning something about the west end. No doubt I'd have a good time and I'd love to go but like I said, the Warden is a homebody and it's almost impossible to get her away from the house. She likes to blame it on the dogs.

Phil, that looks awesome. I bet that was a good time.
Do you feel a bit inadequate, what with only one motor?
Saw a boat yesterday with 4 400hp Verados on it. I felt so small.

Yeah felt that way when all those whalers turned up, then I learned what the one next to me cost, that made me feel like a peasant at the castle Christmas party . 42 Whaler $1.2 M, and the guy needed my help to anchor.
