Subject: The Bahamas, Key West and back.
From: Glenn Ashmore

No tidal current in the Bahamas!?
So just what are those tidal charts for the Bahamas charting then?

I didn't say there was no tide. I said the prevailing current is what
keeps the water clear.

I'd say the daily tides play a more important roll. Without them the dirty
water would not be moved out of the anchorages to the offshore current.
But in the end, both currents work hand in hand to keep the water clean and
clear.


Also, I think you will find the Bahamas are in the Atlantic Ocean not the
Caribbean Sea.

If you want to get picky about it, neither are the Keys.

Don't think it's being picky. Just geographically correct.

And I don't believe I was the one who implied that the Keys are in the
Caribbean.
