I have been dreaming of doing this for 5+ years, you ladies made this look very easy and worry free. I am sure you planned and worried, and planned and planned! But the information you gave and the details were awesome and I am finally getting a CC and doing this crossing soon! Thank you for all the great information and the links in your description.
You girls are very impressive. Your information sounds like it comes from someone who has at least 50 years of sea experience. I had fun watching as well . So you have one more fan (subscriber). Much love from Israel.

What a great trip, thank you for explaining all the steps.
Husband and I just got back from our vacation at Peanut Island. I called this our Almost Bimini Trip! Got out on open waters with our boat for the first time and handed so well. Now it’s time to plan for our Bimini trip 2024 :)
Great video with lots of information. I'm doing research for hopefully an upcoming trip to Bimini next year and this video gives me a ton of information on what we need to do! Can't wait to see the rest of your trip!
I have been researching what I need to do for my trip next year to Bimini. This was the most helpful as far as the process, paperwork, fees, etc. Thank you for the info. Definitely subscribing now.

Be careful using a "rented" boat. They are typically not maintained well enough to trust for something like this. I'm referring to a boat club style rental or possibly a one-time rental from a marina. They didn't mention it, but the boat they are using is probably a demo boat from a local dealer who already does business with the GFT's. The point is, a breakdown would be a disaster, don't trust just anyone with the boat details.
Love the video ladies and kona . Have lots of fun and maybe kona can catch a fish with help from her mamma's as always God bless love y'all my friends
Awesome little misses....great video and super informative.

@@mjredfisher1 Wow, I didn’t know Arizona Tea had copyrights to his name. So I guess larger corporations have to call it another name to keep from getting a lawsuit. I’ll have to try the opposite and order a Sun Joy from other places and see if I get funny looks. 😆

Really appreciate your great videos, specially this one as we just did our first Bimini crossing. Followed your advice and used Go Outdoors Bahamas - very easy to use; Click2Clear was confusing. No good deed goes unpunished. Bimini Customs office would not accept the Go Outdoors Bahamas paperwork - said “it’s not an official government process”. Made us do it all over there in the office. Must have gotten that one guy…. Keep up the good work - love it!
Beautiful trip with beautiful dog with two awesome very skilled capteins 😁
Exactly what I'll be doing, this will be my next expedition, I'm planning to do all the Bahamas islands, I'll be based in Freeport , the plan is to have a power catamaran as the vehicle for the adventure, you two are super, love Cona, she's looks so cool 🌹😎
Heck yeah!!
I went there on my buddys 18ft flats boat was awesome just gotta watch the weather
fantastic video, Congratulations.👍🎣🐟😊 hug and good fishing
I get the same drink!!!!!!!!! Sugar free because of diabetes. Never heard it called a Sun Joy. Arnold Palmer is what a lot of people call it because Arnold drank his tea with lemonade. Great video!
Love the videos
Killer content. Useful and slickly produced infotainment. Oh, they are gorgeous as well as talented. Not that it matters, but it does and they are.
Yeehaw can’t wait to do that
Reel Deal is one of the best tackle shops around the fort lauderdale area. Very nice people and very helpful!
Amazing.
I've been waiting for this one!!! Hopefully you got to do some trolling on the way over ;)

Hi
Nice job ladies... I've watched several videos about crossing. This has been the most informative by far. Keep up the good work!!
Great video Gale Force
Kona Rocks !
Ok ladies, I’ve been lurking for a bit watching here and there going back through your older vids seeing if I really wanted to subscribe. Well this was the one that did it for me. Will hit the subscribe as soon as this posts. You two have created your own business, are very level headed and smart. I have no doubt that I will enjoy the future content as it is my retirement goal to buy a salt water boat and spend my days fishing the coastal waters of Florida. Seeing this crossing to Bimini has added an additional goal. Cheer ladies!! I hope the fishing is good and can’t wait to see the results.

Use to go to Bimini back in the late 80’s and 90’s before Bimini grew
When I was sailing in the Windwards, any place we stopped the captain would take all of our passports and clear customs for the crew. Looks like it works the same in the Bahamas.
Cool that you go everywhere with Kona. I do same such that when I am without my Haneczka, people ask where she is…it is like she is an affectation or my familiar.
So much great info love watching y’all’s videos have a question though is there anywhere y’all recommend to rent a cc for a week?
Wow, great vid

Haven’t seen any of your videos before but the ole KZread algo popped this one up. Super clutch saying you gotta get the covid test (regardless of vaccination*) to go to the bahamas now. Was there in august and the lady at customs in West End said should be clear for next 60 days or something like that. Checked online and turns out I still gotta get tested, saved me a big headache thanks!
