Default Bahamas in January

its cold in January and you better
have warm clothes. 40 and 50 degree days are not unusual with north winds
ripping at 25-35 kts. The lucayan waterway on the bay side is very passable
at high tide. Thats the key. we have gone through there for years with a 54 ft
motoryacht with 4.7 foot draft.
at high tide. overhead causarina bridge height is 27feet. we have friends
with 61 ft tollycraft who traverse that waterway regularly.
as far as fee. you are all wrong.
its 600 bucks. ! to be announced
at ft. lauderdale boat show.
but... thats for the whole year.
Im still having thoughts about that.

Ahoy! You Bahama boaters who endure the ICW, the cold fronts, the skinny
water and the high prices should bite the bullet and sail the easy way to the
Eastern Caribbean - 10-14 days direct from Beaufort to the BVI. Don't forget to
let the Caribbean 1500 "rally" lemmings go first - because they are on a
schedule, they will invariably run into heavy wx, so if you leave after they
do, you will have smooth sailing and will have gotten away without spending a
fortune in the WM store!
