Bahamas Return, 2009

Thread Status: Hello , There was no answer in this thread for more than 60 days.

I don't like a lot of Gatorade with diving either. It is pretty acidic and will at times cause me some pain in the chest. I have mixed some in with my water, but I hate watered down drinks and flavored waters. So I generally take a drink of gatorade in the rotation of water. I do eat chips or crackers to...and Cliff Bars.

Here's to a bigger boat, specificly a 25 ft Seacraft Seafari. I'll pass the hat soon. That one can go to the Bahamas year round. We can all go. . . . . Believe me, I'm working on it, HARD!

I thought of a good metaphorical picture for the river mouth. Kind of like diving into the middle of the Los Angeles freeway at rush hour in a low vis, driving rain storm,everbody is going 90 miles and hour and the semi's are are all huge carp.

Maybe your next boat has sails? - Less gasoline and engine trouble, more enjoyable and stable and SILENT sail too. - I don't expect the gas stay this 'cheap'...

A sailboat is a fabulous way to really see the islands and the diving they offer. Been there, done that, and its great! I would dearly love to do it again. However, you have to have time. If you are working and only have a week or two at a stretch, you can't get far enough in a sailboat (upwind) to do much. Power in a hull capable of running fast for a long way into moderately choppy seas is the only workable alternative. The trick is finding a boat seaworthy enough to do that without beating your kidneys to mush, big enough to carry what you need an small enough so the fuel bill won't break the bank.
