deep1 Posted March 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 The curfew has been n place a few days and will be reviewed again on the 31st... Then likely stretch into May, per what I'm hearing from that side... I'm a boat captain... We got cancelled for April 4 on the Indy so I went north early to get a boat I use in Jersey ready. They basically shut off fishing. I was going to head back south and since I have been in the "hot spot", Florida doesn't want me back right now. Another client was going to fly me to the islands to pick up and bring his boat stateside then I saw this new info... So I guess sitting all alone in a big house in still cold Jersey is what I have to look forward to... JohnK6404 and WAAAYTOOO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deep1 Posted March 29, 2020 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 A lot of my business is in the little out islands that depend on boats like mine to support them. They don't have the same cushions we do to fall back on... I feel terrible for them... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted March 30, 2020 Report Share Posted March 30, 2020 @deep1 Thanks for sharing this. Where do you typically operate out of? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm based in Palm Beach but most of my work takes place at West End, Grand Bahama. Chub Cay between Nassau and Coco Cay, in the Berry Islands) is another favorite haunt. Then the little island of Bimini has served as a second home for years.. Walkers Cay at the north end of Abacos will reopen this year and if I can find a ride I will be there... I migrate from Bahamas to New Jersey also chasing sea serpents. My cancelled Indy that I should be on now resulted in a booking on Oasis out of that Jersey end of things. Hope that one goes.. If not It's simple. I will book again also for near future... Side note... They have really clamped down on their curfews and lock down... This one will be revisited 4/14.
