I took the northerly route, because I was sailing solo. Perhaps, with a
lookout forward the area north of 23N can be navigated successfully.

=============================================

What was your route across the banks going northerly and did you have
to dodge any coral heads?

If I were to proceed, I would heed Grandma's advice. However, what I did
was slid up the Gulf Stream and hung a right to the Providence Channel then
went in to the Exuma Sound between Eleuthera an Cat Island and proceeded to
Sampson Cay. Admittedly, it's the long way but remember I was solo and
coral heads weren't in the equation. Regardless, it's one of the pretty
places I visited. Work it and have fun.
