How far before clearing out?

[MarkJ]

Hi Folks of the Caribbean knowledged variety,

Being new to the area and gettin on mah newly bought boat in the next few days:

How far can one go from an island on a test sail before clearing out?

12nm?

24nm?

100mn?

As far as you like without clearing into the next port?


Not only do I intend to do some test day sails over the next few weeks, I want to do some longer ones overnight etc.


Thanks for your help


Mark
