Spanish Wells is strange, two women were stalking

my teenage son when he was out jogging there ten years ago. They were in a car, probably late 20 year olds, he thought he had shaken them by going the wrong way on a one-way street, but when he got to the end of the street, there they were, having driven around. We have heard that women in Spanish Wells think it is too late if they are not married by 25.
We shouldn't be riding out any front at Alabaster Bay, wind should be steady from the NE for the next three or four days. Evan at Fernandez Bay had also recommended the little Italian joint, Cocodimoma. He also mentioned Lenny Kravitz playing at Elvina's, I am not sure if there is a good place to anchor right there?
We want to spend a couple days in Harbor Island, if the weather is good I wouldn't hesitate to sail over through the Devil's Backbone. Ten years ago we were short on time and rode the catamaran ferry at 35 knots. All the sailors were in the pilothouse watching the captain drive with a little joystick on his armrest, following the GPS line on the plotter. If he can do it, so can I. By the way, that ferry was built by the Indians in the shipyard at New London, jet drive, twin MTU 2,500 hp diesels. That would have been a fun delivery for Jon.
John, I really appreciate all your suggestions, they are making our trip better. For the past year or two I have cut and pasted suggestions from you, Jon and others on the board to a Word file on my laptop. I refer to it when headed to a new area and as I said, it has been helpful.
Picture of the liquor store and launching ramp where you can buy fresh grouper or conch from the local fishermen.
