Authorities are trying to find the 52-year-old man, Charles Walker, who was last seen about 5 p.m. Friday in Pompano Beach in the 3200 block of Northeast 16th Street, a community near the beach just north of the 14th Street bridge.
Walker was attempting to ride a Jet Ski personal watercraft to Bimini in the Bahamas, his family told the sheriff’s detectives.

I have no idea what the range of a jet ski is.

It's about 60 miles. I suppose it could be done on one of the big jet skis in relatively calm waters. People take speed boats from FL to have dinner in Bimini. Probably takes longer navigating the intercoastals than the actual trip.

Around two hundred miles to the Bahamas. Not a chance, unless you were hauling gas too.

Appears to be a “Florida man.”

I have no idea what the range of a jet ski is. I have one and I would guess about 120 miles max. One of my rules is to never ride alone. Nothing more embarrassing than being stuck with a broken rig and having to wave down strangers for a tow. Best to just have a buddy pull you home.
Being stuck in the open sea with no one around would be terrifying.

Bimini’s been tried before. Authorities stepped in when he ran out of gas.
