Rosalie, I am not sure what size boat you have.. I used to sail an Ericson 27. I would leave Rodriguez Key at the bottom of Key largo about 3 or 4am.. Bimini is ony 56miles NE.. it usually took me about 12-15 hours go get there.. not two days.. 56 miles at 4 knots is 14 hours.. even in bad weather I never went over 18 when I had to drop back to 3 knots due to wave or current action..
