ANNUAL NEW YEAR’S DAY CRUISING REGATTA EVENTS ARE POSTPONED THIS HOLIDAY SEASON

Posted: 09 Nov 2018 01:32 PM PST

ATTENTION VISITING SAILBOATS AND GUESTS OF STANIEL CAY

The Community of Staniel Cay has postponed the annual New Year’s Day Cruising Regatta and related events (e.g., Captain’s Cocktail Party, Auction, Awards Dinner) this December 2018 and January 2019.

We apologize for any inconvenience, but invite you to join us this holiday season anyway. Staniel Cay will still be bustling with holiday excitement and festivities, so we welcome everyone to visit and share a jolly good time! The Staniel Cay Yacht Club will host a variety of activities (see www.stanielcay.com), Mt. Olivet Baptist Church will hold various holiday services with all denominations welcome, and Staniel Cay community members may organize other fun, ad hoc events.

Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to seeing you this winter.

Food and Charts for Bahamas

I am sure everyone’s situation is different but I would just like an idea of what I should take and how much. We are planning on hopefully cruising for 5 months. How much food should I take and paper supplies. I just need a rough idea and also cash.

My other question is regarding charts what charts do I need to get and download before I go. Thanks for recommendations and suggestions.

Anyone else thinking of Havana in January or February?
I’m a 30 ft. fast trawler, will be in the Keys for Christmas, thinking of Havana then to Bimini, unknown from there.
I can go alone but it is better with another boat, other people.
