Advice needed: marina southern caribbean
Hi all,
I am looking for a cheap and safe berth / marina in the caribbean to keep our 44 ft catamaran next year. Due to insurance restrictions I am looking for a base below 13 degrees (bottom half of Bequia).
Does anyone have any recommendations or advice?
Thanks!

SE Carib only?
No hurricanes here in Panama in the SW Carib.

Yes we will end up there at some point I hope but for the first year want to do eastern Caribbean islands.
We are arriving from Cape Town so looking for shorter crossing also.

Just make sure that the marina has the equipment and manpower to put out a fire and to haul out boats in an emergency.
