Fourteen *countries* between Florida and the Caribbean? OMG.

No way! There just aren't 14 countries between here and there, dude.

You have:

1) Bahamas
2) Turks and Caicos
3) Dominican Republic (Haiti doesn't count only a fool stops there)
Puerto Rico doesn't count because it's America
Virgin Islands don't count because they are American
4) BVI's
5) AVI's don't count as a separate country.
6) Anguilla

That makes six and you're in the Eastern Caribbean.

Then you're in the Eastern Caribbean.

You're part way there. By the way you still have to clear in and out
of Puerto Rico and the USVI, and they each have their own courtesy
flag so they might just as well be separate countries for cruising
purposes

Here are the ones you're forgetting:

St Martin, St Barts, Antigua, Guadaloupe, Dominica, Martinique, St
Lucia, St Vincent & the Grenadines, Grenada.
