First Mate's Resume
Captain Tom's Resume
Magic Carpet Ride
 
About a month ago, Tom was hired as mate on a 70 foot motor yacht, Magic Carpet.  Here's a link to the broker's page with all the photos.  If you're interested, asking price about $650K.   If you'd like to go on your own Magic Carpet ride, she is available for charter! 
 
 
Last week, Diana (we'll call her Diana T, to avoid confusion), and her husband Jim, came for a little R-N-R.  We spent two nights in Bimini, at the Bimini Bay Resort and Marina. All new facilities...casino still under construction.
 
P.S. I forgot my digital camera, so I used the webcam on the laptop to take a few of these, and bought a throw-away 35mm camera in Bimini, so the quality leaves a bit to be desired!  Anyway...

Jim and Diana T. on the upper deck leaving Ft Lauderdale.

 

 

Next door to the 'End of the World' Bar...

 

 

Found lots of live conch.  Didn't keep any.

 

 

Cruising about 12 kn across the gulf stream.

 

 

Jim & Diana T. in the main salon (sorry about the quality of the photo...camera was meant for outdoors)

Coming back in to Miami...

 

 

Back up in the New River in Ft. L.  Lady Triana is at her temp home, in the middle of the pic way up there. 

 

Here's a view of her we've never had before...

 

First mate Tom.  (those of you who know him will recognize the hair :-)

 

 

First mate cleaning the bottom of the boat.  The window above his head there was our cabin.

What is he doing out there?  

 

 

Never know what you'll see on the river here...

Anybody need a hair cut?
