Hello everyone. While planning for our trip to Bimini in May, I was asked to put together a fact sheet for boaters looking to visit the Bahamas. I put this document together from my own experiences, help from my fellow boaters and information available on the internet. This Guideline is available on a MS Word format or pdf, just shoot me a PM and I'll be happy to send you the latest version. My hope is to update this Guideline as things change so it will be a resource for everyone. The Guideline is not geared specifically to certain locations, just the process and procedures for making a safe crossing. Feel free to provide additional information any time.

NOTE - the pages shown below are not the most current Guide, they were the first version. The most current updated Guide will be sent when requested.

Is it just me, but can't see info just "?"
 
FWIW, I can see it without any issues. We can't make the trip unfortunately :smt089, but have to say some of you guys have really put some effort and work into it and this indepth guide is no exception. It's full of interesting useful stuff, thanks anyway, will no doubt be useful for other trips too. Well done! Hope you all have a safe and wonderful trip:)

Must have been the kindle I was using. I see the info here. Great info by the way. I'm going to sticky it.
Do you think we should leave it in the area or move it the general area. IMHO I think it would be best in the area let me know
if you want me to move it.
Thanks Chuck

I don't know where the best place for it would be. My initial thought was SE because of the proximity to the Bahamas. Funny thing....The requests for the document so far came from people out of state.

I'm good with where ever it is
 
Great info and write up. Thanks Randy!
 
I think all Bahama trips should be one way. We will do it in 4 more years
 
Randy, Great job! I am going to use this guide as my go to check out list
for crossing over this fall. Thanks for all your hard work, it is truly appreciated. JC
