nippers
ya i second that, there should be a audiance and the bar doesnt care if your money is wet.
but you should be able to find hundreds of flats to set up on and ride. ________ Krystal19 Last edited by kabo123; 08-11-2011 at 09:25 PM. |

AJ and the guys have a lot of insight on the Bahamas and all the great riding areas. Lucky guys.
Depending on when you are going, I will have some more info on the Elbow Cay area of the Abacos. Getting hitched over there in late May. I did an advanced visit last August, under a tropical depression, and managed to scope out quite a bit of that area anyway. Chuck Patterson has done some tow in surfing off Elbow Cay and all the way from California. The Sea of Abaco offers some interesting calmer water riding options. They have large beaches along the eastern shores of many of the cays. Lots of options, should be fun. It would be a good idea when exploring new areas near cuts or channels between islands to have a chase boat manned and hanging out. They can have some nuking tidal currents in the Bahamas and once you drift off island ... there you are. Have a good trip!

Charts
As far as your sailing is concerned....
Explorer Charts are the best Bahama charts out there...period. They come in 3 sections, North Middle and south, I forget the exact names, like far out, near island etc, but you would want the north section and maybe the middle (exuma) one too. The chartbooks are good enough that you probably don't need guide books to go with them. They cover anchorages, eats, marinas etc. No idea if charter companies provide these for ya, but probably -rob |
