Just a heads up for anyone going to Bimini this summer, the buoys at the entrance are off station. The green is pretty much on the ever growing sandbar which has grown very close to the second red. Coming in at low tide a boat ahead made it but stirred sand leaving the second red to starboard.

Best water can be found by leaving the first red to STBD but then leaving the second red close to PORT, I passed about 10/15’ away. Then wait about 200 feet before making the turn north staying well away from almost beached green. This will give no less than 8 1/2 MLW

Bimini was the usual holiday weekend mess… ridiculously loud music, wakes etc.

My keel bumped that at low tide in April on our way outbound. We got underway at first light and couldn't read the water.

I am sorry I did not think to post about it. The rest of the day went well so I forgot about it.
