Blackbeards (Bahamas) in 5 days, anyone else?

[Omicron]

Have a good time - I did one of those trips a while back and had an awesome, awesome time. Do yourself a favor though - no matter how tough you think you are, swallow your pride and swallow some dramamine the first couple of days. The crossing is a killer - they just layed the people out on the back deck and let 'em throw up all over the back. They just had a rinsing every half hour. We loaded up on a couple of dramamine and were alright...but I wasn't feeling my best.

Get some rain gear for the crossings - you will get wet.
Bring strong clothespins - better yet, get those little mini-clamps from Menards/Home Depot/Hardware store - they are priceless for clipping your towels and clothes onto the railings.

Most of all, enjoy yourself!
