      Good day all. Planning trip from Grand Bahama to Acklins. Is there a known channel between the southern tip of the tongue of the ocean to the crooked island passage, for vessel drawing 15′ water? Thanking in advance.

        If you mean going down west of the Exumas, at 15′, absolutely no way!. Your best option is to head for Exuma Sound , if you can get through into it and then down the east side of Long Island. Otherwise you have a long sail either outside Eleuthra and Cat Island or south of Andros, long sails either way.
        But your objective, The Acklins is well worth it. All the out islands are friendly, but we have never received a warmer welcome than at Landrail Point (Crooked Island). Excellent wall dive just a few hundred yards off the beach.
