Nola.. thanks for the share..! Looks like that crew has done it several times by the videos they have.
What a great trip that would be! Sure the weather patterns would be crucial , and He had a support crew sorta if failure occurred? Other than the guys that said...... " He'll ya I'm in ....and gonna take my jet ski "

Good for him but I would never cross over to the Bahamas without engine redundancy. If anything ever went wrong things get hairy in a hurry down there and waiting for a tow leaves me uneasy.
His engine wasn’t even broken in yet. These are the guys that get the coast guard killed. Sorry to be a buzzkill.
I agree. This is honestly a good way to get hurt or kilt. Brand new R5, a jet boat and two skis... what???
Anyway Paradise Island is awesome. Go check out Atlantis if you can. Very cool aquarium.
sidenote - when I was there in the late 90's my brother and I rented jetskis from these guys. They had these 15K yamaha sleds. When asked where/how they got them - "we run to Miami at night in boats with 6-7 guys. run the coast and steal skis and ride them straight back to nassau!"

Yup. Imagine ripping from Miami to the Bahamas at night across the ocean alone!

Our boat doesn't have enough horses for BB... so he doesn't get the captains chair...he would hate it. I might let him push the Captains call button!

Actual photo of BBP stealing my boat...luckily the fuel pump died and the engine quit before he could get away.
