Subject: The Bahamas, Key West and back.

From: "Jack" snip Short of opening your mouth and swallowing a piece, I doubt the fecal count gets high enough in your average Bahamian anchorage to worry about it. I've tried to stay out of this, but I can't. We have LectraSans and I'm sure the output of our boat is not such that anyone would have any health concerns about it. There are places in the Bahamas that I would not want to swim in and/or would use a holding tank in place of discharging. I wouldn't want to swim in Nassau harbour. The harbour at Highborne Cay and the one at Chub Cay are both very stagnant. Otherwise most of the places that we've been we have had to be very careful anchoring and swimming lest we be carried away from the boat by the current, and there are some harbours where we have to be very careful to take the current into account when docking or undocking. grandma Rosalie I agree with you on the harbours you mention. But of course they would not fit into the definition of an average Bahamian anchorage. And I, as apparently have you, have found the tidal currents in most anchorages to be more than strong enough to "flush" the area. Capt. Bill |
