Plus, the water is clear so it's easy to check how you are set. (the only exception is at Great Harbour JVD and parts of Cane Garden Bay where the bottom is a mix of sand and rock. I give the former a pass and pick my spot carefully on the latter) As for a check out skipper, I would think that anyone on this list could get by without one. If you own a boat and can handle that, you'll be more skilled than a large percentage of the credit card captains you'll see down there. Don't sweat it.

We almost took all the ports off the boat too on leaving. The boat was about 20 feet wide, the pilings were 20 feet and two inches apart, and the ports opened OUT from the hull! I was wondering why my friends were frantically running down the boat from bow to stern kicking something every few feet.

We left Miami Beach around midnight; she basically let me do everything. She and I took turns on watch overnight; when we arrived at Bimini around 8am, she helped tie the boat up, said, “yep, you’re fine” and caught the next Chalk’s flight back to Miami.
