Re: First Time Bareboat Charter. Where would you recommend?

BVI seems unanimous. I did the ASA 101, 103, and 104 cents in 2016 and chartered in the BVIs spring of 2017. That was enough of a resume plus some day rentals included for the charter companies. We...

Re: 2020/2021 Plans for East Coast US Cruisers

There are simply too many uncertainties to plan too much. I have a bunch of contingencies, but it currently looks like hunkering down and being patient is the only one that will pan out.

Re: US / Canada border restrictions predictions...

I'm glad to see that somebody has a good public health plan. The U.S. doesn't have the patience to follow through on anything.

Re: Florida to Exumas feedback needed

I found the Highbourne Cay Marina to be a good stop for diesel and water. There isn't much else in the northern Exumas.

Re: Electric Car Economics

The only new EPA regulations are ones that relax previous regulations. I know this for a fact but can't explain much more lest I would be unemployed.

Re: Help me (please) plan my Bahamas Cruise!

I agree with Mystic 38. There are lots of spectacular and secluded anchorages in the Exumas.

Re: Exumas instead of Abacos

The Exuma Cays were my second charter, after one in the BVIs. Both were in monos.
They didn't seem that difficult except for more reefs to watch out for. The Exuma Cays did seem much more remote...

Re: Grenadines: Places You Didn't Like and Why

All I can say is that I made sure to find a sandy patch to drop the hook, and didn't drag. I was on the Clifton Harbor side of the bay. It sound like you were closer to Happy Island if there was a...

Re: Grenadines: Places You Didn't Like and Why

Re: Grenadines: Places You Didn't Like and Why

Re: Grenada Ancorages
