"Lee Haefele" :

If you look and ask around, MOST wash water can be found for free. I
require low salt, and buy gallons of water for drinking. Budget for water
on recent trip: $2, I did Jerry Jug 25 gallons, so take some containers
along.

Correct, I don't plan on using ice. I'ts a hassle and I'm trying to
"get away from it all". I will have to stop in the islands for water
and nothing else. Obviously I'll have alot of MRE's. Beer, yes, but
warm.

Water will cost from $0.25 to $0.50 per gallon most places in the

Bahamas,
and if you anchor out you will have to jerry can it. Do you have a row
dinghy or will you use an outboard. Gas is alittle more expensive also.

Since we are talking about on person and one person only, is a solar still a
possible good source of water him?
