    Even with the goofy weather, you made the right call going to the Bahamas this summer instead of the Florida Keys. I have made several trips to the keys this summer and the gulf water temps are in the mid 90s and the reef fishing has been off because of it. Keep having fun and be safe.

    When I lived there in the 60’s the Jack Tar Hotel and resort was there. Very popular place. They had a huge salt water pool. Long gone now. I have been there under similar conditions in my boat. Found very poor holding. A thin layer of sand then hard coral. Glad you rode it out ok.

    Hey skipper another great video the island 🏝 are spectacular and you really know how get every angle. I'm sure you see alot of marine life dolphins, sea turtles, birds, bait fish crashing, etc. You ever try to get good aerial drone shots of them?. Your doing such an awesome job with the drone I think if you can get aerial shots of say bait fish crashing or maybe a sea turtle that would really be spectacular especially if you use the slo mo! I'm just learning how to utilize my drone and get nice video hovering 50 ft over bait fish and marine life can be spectacular. Just a thought. Anyway great job keep em coming skip!

    Hi Capt. good morning from grey and windy Melbourne, Australia. Two videos in one week, what a bonus! You aren't crazy, I much prefer to be out of the marinas and swinging on the anchor or a mooring. My wife bought me a drone for my birthday, a DJI Mini 2. What drone do you use? I'm looking forward to summer so I can take some shots of the boat and my fishing grounds.
    Oh, I have to mention it again. Your steak is overcooked, it must be pink 😁 I know, I'm not the one eating it but, I'm watching you eat it and wishing it was me eating it. Nice choice, Pinot Noir, I hope it was an Aussy wine, American wine is, well, let's not talk about American wine.......🤣🤣🤣

We are serious about our beer, boats and fishing 😃 I had my 300 hp Mercruiser and Bravo 2 removed from my boat today. She goes in for some serious fibreglassing next month and will be converted to an outboard by early October. I’d love to message you privately but not sure how to go about it.

    Hi capt.
    Iove the tranquility of being on the sea instead of a marina. But a boat like mine isn't weather worthy to stay in open waters if a storm would come up. Hopefully if i get to cross one day i will have to book a room and dock in the marina.
    Hope you catch some nice fish in your next day fishing.
    Always nice to watch your videos.

    Hi Capt... love the video and the great drone footage!.... When my wife and I were cruising more, we like you, preferred to be anchored out, especially at night. It is much more peaceful and quieter, and there is better privacy. Some marinas got too loud with people partying late into the night; making it hard to sleep! ☺
