Bahama Entry Forms Online?

In years past, I have downloaded Bahama entry forms from their web site. This year they have "improved" the site so much that I cannot find them.

Does anyone here know the URL?

Can't guarantee it's the most current:

Boating & Sailing - Bahamas | The Bahamas

Click the Bahamas Customs Clearance link and a pdf file will open.

Goto the menu at the left side, and select “Boating & Sailing”, then “Bahamas Customs Clearance” under the picture of the power boat.

Yeah, I was looking down the left side with all the other links instead of under the picture.

Inconsistent layout was confusing.

I down loaded these last year and had them all filled out when I arrived. Then I was told that I couldn't use them and had to do them all over again in front of the customs agent. Looked the same to me, maybe he was having a bad day.

The authorities in the Bahamas always have lots of forms and carbon paper. Yes, carbon paper is still in use in this world of ours. Many marinas also have the forms. Most of the officers like to do things their way. We have never downloaded the forms.

I have used them more than once with favorable results. That's why I wanted to find them this year.

I'm glad you asked. It has me thinking I'll fill them out prior to my next arrival. I really dislike filling them out on the spot.

SUNSPOT BABY,,,, When you guys getting out of Dodge? Should be getting pretty cold up there now.

Is Scandia coming down this year as well?

We're in Miami and will be departing after Christmas. I think we'll do Eleuthera, Cat, and some of the other islands we haven't seen yet this year. Not sure if we'll make it to G-TWN though.

We plan to depart ~ 11/10. Scandia is loaded and waiting for weather. It is rainy here today. I would guess they will leave about a week ahead of us.

We have no particular plan and will just go where the wind blows.
