7/26/19 – Jupiter to Old Bahama Bay

Everyone is always excited to kick off our trip from Jupiter. We had an uneventful crossing. It was a beautiful smooth day which allowed the seasoned crew to really be able to relax. During the crossing we came across an area that had some big/weird waves. It was dead calm except for this square mile area where the waves were 2-4 tall going in all directions.

We were bringing some chairs to GHC for a friend that has a “Boatel” there. Maybe Invincible should make this a boat option for additional seating!

Since we were staying at OBB, we cleared customs while parked at our slip for the night. The “AR-DE” boat next to us provided some nice shade in the afternoon.

After clearing customs, we jumped in the pool to cool off and then headed to memory rock to do some snorkeling and spearfishing.

We didn’t see much to spear, so Charles decided to kill some lionfish.

This might be the closest we have ever been to memory rock. When going to the Abacos, it was always our entry point from the gulf stream to the Bahama bank. The depth goes from 2000 feet to under 10 feet in less than a mile. This is usually a great fishing area for us, but not today.

On the way back from diving, we stopped in the crystal clear waters for a quick family swim and for Brandy to try a front flip off the boat. Something John had mastered a while back.

Brandy worked on her front flip too!

We ended the day with more pool time, and grilled some food on the boat.

The chairs came in handy for eating our dinner on the dock!
