factor.
I just looked at the North Bar channel chart.
Entry looks easy enough through a 600 foot wide gap, about 20 feet deep IF the skippeer does not realize what happens with wind against tide in such a place.

I have been there, and seen that the tide is quite fast in the channel, as in most similar cuts from the banks to the ocean in the Bahamas.

The breakers would not be visible from seaward, even in daylight, until too late.

In the old days, fear of hitting the rocks would have kept even a fool off, but it is decpetively easy to navigate with GPS.
