Bro. I used to work at a shipyard in Hawaii.10yrs ago. Gov contract,we made carbon fiber 50'mono three step with ama's and rubber attached to ama's like a zodiac. Can handle 20 ft seas at 40mph, I was onboard multiple times in conditions described.Three inbords diesel. Surface cutting prop's 60mph. Spotted it in somebody's construction equipment yard/office. The engines gone due to gov funding but but this guy got the hull and you might want? Pics coming if u like.

How can a vacation destination like the Bahamas not have fuel for the planes that bring 90% of the tourists out to the island!? I am willing to bet that you are not the first person to learn that. Surely there is some solution beyond "hope I have enough"!? That blew me away! Thanks for the video. I hvvope we get to see a video of your crew at Flair's?
