Florida to Bahamas Rental?

Looking for more details to previous posts regarding travel/rental from FL to Bahamas. Understand Oli at Fishe is a great way to go. Wondering if there is a cheaper (less "per day" hours required - Oli requires 14 hours over 7 days) alternative. Looking for 5 days @ 1.5 hours per day.

Also - what a/c is good for traveling with 4 adults with bags for a five-day island adventure? I assume a C-172 is out. How about a 182? or a PA-28?

I only have approx 120 civilian flight hours, but 2,000 military flight hours in 25 different a/c types (test pilot). Not sure if this will "limit" me or "open doors" for me. I do have my FAA CFI, Commercial, Mult, IFR ratings as well.

Thanks for any responses. It's silly that I've been flying for 15 years, but am still intimidated by civilian flying at 150 knots! VFR? What is that?

Cheers,

Boucher

Stacks of stuff on this subject already. Try a search.

Air Orlando at KORL has a modern fleet and does a 2 hour daily minimum. They have a C182 Turbo.
