BAHAMAS POKER RUN Trip of a lifetime whos going
The Bahamas run is coming on fast. July 19th -24th with Thrusday and Friday departures to Grand Bahama.
This is the ultimate powerboating trip with five incredible nights. Starting out at West End and Port Lucaya on Grand Bahama Island, then continues eastbound to Treasure Cay in the Abacos. These are among the most popular boating destinations in the Bahamas, featuring lavish accommodations, pristine beaches and pleasant island attitude only found in the Bahamas.

A 26-28 ft Twin would do just fine. I have done many open water runs in much smaller boats, but as we are organizing a large group we must consider all circumstances and do strongly encourage all participating boats be twins.

We cross running about 45, we like to keep the group together, everyone in eye sight. Some people like to run faster, and so they do, then they will get ahead of the group, but the pace boat runs around 45.
