Default Favorite Islands

Just about everone who boats has a favorite island or two. *How about
everone listing some of theirs, along with some high points?

I'll start:

Northeast: *Block Island and Martha's Vineyard. *Both are convenient
to Long Island Sound and the NY/CT metro areas. *Both have great
scenery and well protected harbors. *Both have good fishing and
supplies.

Caribbean: *St Martin's, Antigua and Martinique - all for slightly
different reasons but all have good harbors, scenery, beaches and
ambience.


Kauai'i - but I've never boated there but took a Catamaran tour of
the S west shore. That was a lot of fun!

But I've never really been to very many islands except on the Wabash
river which are sand bar humps, but I have an open invitation to go
fishing with a friend off the Fl. keys, in his 27 ft Mako. I might
take him up on it this winter....
