In this episode we take the new "Broad Minded" 265 miles from Islamorada to Harbour Island, Bahamas! It was blowing 15-20 knots in our face so the seas were rough but after 8 hours and 45 minutes we finally made it.

You have arguably one of the baddest boats ever built and you realistically showed what it's like to run in a true 4'+ sea with a crew. All the guys out there who state that their boat can run 40mph in 4'+ seas are full of it. You made it a safe, comfortable crossing for your crew. Congrats on your new ride.

Let’s be real. A lot can happen in 9 hours. Especially on the water,and yet modern sailors are safer then ever. Can you imagine not knowing what the weather is going to do, and having only a compass and paper map. The boat could probably drive itself anywhere it’s programmed, and do it safer then a human. Wow. Just wow.

And I don't know so many nautical terms but awesome boat, awesome skipper, and awesome passengers. I don't mean to be creepy but at the 7:31 mark when the camera showed those mile-high arches I briefly forgot about the trip. You're a seriously lucky man!! Great video! Edit: It's obvious that crew safety was considered in every part of the crossing.. again, great job.
