I cruised into the Bahama Bank's very clear and shallow water from Vero in a 65-footer headed to Walker's Cay to be suddenly passed at high speed by a relatively small outboard motorboat with a young man and a couple of ladies who had clearly come from Florida in a few hours as opposed to the overnight run we were on. I thought to myself as I looked down into the passing boat that these young folks could have been in a bunch of trouble in their single engine and sparsely equipped boat with most any problem. Yes, it was easy and fast for them, that day.
