Honeymoon in the Bahamas - Crossing the Gulf Stream

Daniel (Sailing Nauti Dream)

We left our anchorage in Biscayne after some paddle boarding and snorkeling. Overnight sail to Bimini started with favorable conditions. Halfway across the Gulf Stream, the waves built up to the point of overpowering the autopilot. Hands steered for the rest of the way with the beacon at Bimini clearly visible. Entered the channel in rough conditions and it immediately smoothed once behind the sand bar. Everyone was either sick or exhausted when we arrived, but slept a few hours before checking into the Bahamas and refueling.
