Crossing the Bank to the Abacos
After completing our Bahamas check-in, we topped off our diesel fuel tank and motored out of the West End marina at about 1200 hours. In the daytime, it seems pretty simple to get out of the marina. We spent the next three days on the “Bank.”
The Crossing
We spent about 8 days at the North Palm Beach Marina in Florida where I completed some engine maintenance tasks – changed both fuel filters, changed oil and filter, and installed a new raw water pump, in preparation for the crossing over the Gulf Stream to the Bahamas.
