Bimini mid-June 2006


I was in Bimini, in the Bahamas, the weekend of June 9-11. Had a fun time covering an event for work. Met up with Rick M., someone I went to K-12 school together (!) and probably last seen at graduation or some drunken nite in Seaside Park, NJ. Stayed at the Bimini Sands Resort on South Bimini. Rick's got a 34' Fountain and we averaged about 50 mph the way over from FL, hauling ass across the Gulf Stream and the dreaded Bermuda Triangle. That's me in the back left, Rick's in front, and ace pilot and Miami resident Chris waving. The way home was a little dicey-with the first named storm of the season making a mess in the Yucatan area, we had 2-4 footers in the Gulf Stream. On the Fl side, just outta of the Stream, we had steady 5-6 footers, solid, like sets.
