You didn't say what the budget is? Marinas in the Bahamas can get expensive. Moorings much cheaper. Flights into the Abacos are more expensive then say Nassau and Grand Bahamas. Sailing is better in the Abacos (more protected) and down in the Exuma chain.

How much civilization do they want? Restaurants? Shopping? You mentioned the boat is light in supplies; boat supplies? Not many boating supply places except maybe Spanish Wells, Nassau, and the Abacos.

Have fun; planing is a good part of any trip.
