    Hey crossing would be easier if you turn that reel over and crank it the other way😀

      It is incredibly gorgeous in the Bahamas. Especially the Exuma Islands.

    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.

    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!

    • @tryingnottosink9107
      @tryingnottosink9107  2 роки тому

      We are not sure what happened with the cable either. I suppose a bad connection which heated up. The pedestal was fine.

    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.

    • @tryingnottosink9107
      @tryingnottosink9107  2 роки тому

      I assume we had a bad contact and it was arching. I installed a new end on the cable.

      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.

    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.

    • @tryingnottosink9107

      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.

      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.
