I've done that run 3 times to 3 different destinations and it was by far the coolest run FPC does!

Stu has shortened the itinerary this year, in years past he has gone 175 miles+ into the Bahamas (Abacos) but this run is just around Bimini which is 46 miles from Ft Lauderdale. It is your chance to be a Mini- BobtheBuilder hopping between islands!

Bahamas needs the tourism for sure. I had dinner with a boat captain Sunday that told me West End is essentially closed down. Old Bahama Bay was a beautiful resort and the hotel ceased operations (turning all the condos back over to the individual owners, restaurants closed etc). Customs and the fuel dock were the only things left open.

West End was easily one of the nicest developments in the Bahamas, I suspect there are others that will be in trouble also.
