Walkabout Bahia Mar

Bahia Mar is always entertaining... There are so many huge Megayachts that boats like Istaboa just disappear. But if you look closely... sometimes you can find a few very interesting vessels.

Like this Mochi. Built in Italy and, though not our kinda boat, it is a floating work of art.

This one is for Hope. Notice how the mirror image of the name has been bleached into the teak decks. A very cool little detail.

This is the tender to a much larger boat; it looks to be a one off custom built little runabout. The picture doesn't do it justice, it's a beautiful boat.


But somehow it doesn't seem very practical here in sunny south Florida. All that black could get a bit hot. Still very cool... maybe at night.


They were having a go fast boat race last weekend and the crews were using the north parking lot of Bahia Mar as a pit.


Wild looking boats were everywhere. Kinda like NASCAR on the water.

Oh Yeah... What would a go fast boat race be without a few of these.

So today Craig and I are doing some upgrades and maintenance on Istaboa. Later we are leaving Bahia Mar and running up New River to Marina Bay.

Till next time...

Adios,

Istaboa
