Default Grand Bahama Western End advice needed - correction

There is a strictly fair weather anchorage a few hundred feet north of
the West End Marina entrance ... boats with ~5 ft. draft use this as a
jump-off in fair weather. Its open from the West to the North and you
have to cross a small bar to the anchorage. On the explorer charts you
will see the anchorage designation ... just north to the entrance of
West End Marina.

Mangrove Cay is the next possible eastward on the banks, but only
offers protection from the east .... and is a few hours from Memory
Rock. Mangrove is approximately 1/2 the distance between Great Sale
and Memory Rock.

The Indian Rock channel from Barracuda Shoal seems to be shoaling and
isnt passable for a 6 ft. draft for other than a spring tide and very
calm water.
