- We leave Chub Cay and cross the Bahama Banks to Bimini. We spend a few days exploring the island by gulf cart, meeting locals and eating incredible seafood and conch. We cross the Gulf Stream back to the United States and celebrate in Fort Lauderdale.

I love riding along and your videos. They always make me feel like I’m actually there. I’ve got five more months and will likely hit the loop and start my adventure
That's awesome! Have fun!
Awesome
Nothing like Blues and boating.
We agree.
Lovely ❤
Good stuff 👍🏼
Thanks 👍
Hey crossing would be easier if you turn that reel over and crank it the other way😀
Brown's Marina is an institution. My first visit was in 1958, at three years-old. My parents dressed me in a big hat and sunglasses and stuffed me into a tire inner-tube, tied to the back of the boat, (a Mathews, I believe, with lots of teak) where I was happy as could be. There was a mesh bag over the side of the boat full of lobsters my mom bought for fifteen-cents each. Mom, dad, and friends enjoyed cocktails on the aft deck. Aaahhhhh, Bimini life! Thanks for bringing us along!
We like Brown's as well. The dock hands are always very good, which is important with such strong currents.
Glad you caught that plug before you had a fire.
Me too!
Thanks Ed & Lyn for taking us along on another beautiful adventure, can’t wait for the Keys!
Our pleasure!
Great video! Chica M8 bangin' in the panama hat! Happy Halloween Captain Sperrys and Lyn! 🎃BOO to You Triton Crew!
🤟🦇🕷🕸🥃🎃
Happy Halloween! Our anniversary!
@@tryingnottosink9107 Happy Anniversary you two!!🥳🍾🍻🥂😘😘
OMG…. Absolutely gorgeous. Can’t wait to chop the dock lines and GO!!
It is incredibly gorgeous in the Bahamas. Especially the Exuma Islands.
Great video, we are new, just bought a Carver 355 wanting to live your lifestyle one day. Have a great weekend, cheers
We loved our Carver 355. We never took it to the Bahamas but it was capable.
I get very sad when I see the ruins of the Compleat Angler. Worked on South Bimini for years and drank a bunch of Kalik's with Hemingway.
Go Phillies
Great Video!
Thanks!
It always cracks me up " Roger Out" poor Roger doesn't get to go along... Safe travels prayers 🙏 Scott
Always walking the plank!
wow over 32k subs..awesome
Thanks! Slowly, but surely. I am surprised anyone watches us at all, but as long as they do, we'll keep creating videos.
Thank you for sharing! It is fun to watch 👍
Thank you for guest-starring!
Thanks for another great video - you guys are the BEST !!!
Thanks for joining us!
Lyn is the ultimate line handler mate! I like when you show her in action on the bow... every captain should be so lucky to have a mate who has it down like that!
That's cool you got out and explored more of Bimini...great to get out of the tourist zone. Bummer about the power cable frying like that... I didn't understand exactly what happened there?
The Roger Out @ 10:20 was awesome!! A score of 9.3 on that one for sure!!! No points deducted because of only one Roger Out because that one was so good!
We are not sure what happened with the cable either. I suppose a bad connection which heated up. The pedestal was fine.
Looks like you guys are having an awesome time... Exploring all the nooks and crannies of Bimini on a golf cart looks fun..
Yes we are! Thanks for watching.
Just read an article about plugs and pedestal fires. That looked like your plug had too much resistance or not good contact with the pedestal...just my guess. I Enjoy your videos!!! from Seattle.
I assume we had a bad contact and it was arching. I installed a new end on the cable.
Love Watching your videos!!! Can't wait to get our boat!
One of the best decisions we have made!
good vid bro
Glad you enjoyed
Another beautiful video. Great!
What about the solar panels results?
Doing very well. I'll probably do a video on it soon.
@@tryingnottosink9107 Great! Thanks!
Sorry cant watch this after the opening, open face reel being used upside down.
I was wondering which expense is larger on your trips? Fuel or your bar tabs.
Close call! 😁
Did you have power and water at Browne's?
Yes, water and power. Although my power cable burnt up and I don't know why. The pedestal seemed fine. I put a new end on but wired it wrong and electrocuted myself while on the hard. In a future video.
@@tryingnottosink9107 OMG! Not funny.
Any plans to land at Boca Raton?😎
No, not this year.
Nice video. Haven't been in Bimini for a few years. How was Resorts World? It was both new and becoming run down at the same time when we were there. The developer -- Genting -- has been in financial difficulties for a while from what I have read. Alice Town was either full of character or scruffy depending on your point of view, but there were some roadside food stands with epic conch salad.
The casino has been mostly empty every time we go there. Bimini is like most of the Bahama islands, poor but with mostly nice people. We prefer the Exumas, but Bimini is vlose.
How much for a week or so cruise…? Is your boat like Delos ?
We do not charter our boat right now. Maybe some day.
Been there, just another unkept island that leaves a lot to be desired
Hi Guys
feeding your livers alcohol is not healthy .... WELL it's a social diseases and we all do it once in awhile. But you two have a full and rich life i wish that I could do what you do NOT THE DRINKING PART!!!! the boating is awesome Control your drinking, you have an awesome life you don't need to drink ..... Take Care of yourselves. Your health is going to be all you have that is important some day

We don't drink nearly as much as you would think by watching our videos. For example, we never drink while underway, and rarely while anchored, and usually it is just a drink or two with dinner. However, sometimes we do throw back a few.
