Abacos are more like Florida East than the Bahamas. Too many US style restaurants, too many marinas, too many tourist shops, and waaay too many "short term" cruisers that know nothing. These people come over from Fl this time of year because the WX is usually good without real fronts. They can't navigate, and usually have very little experience. Lots of the sportfish crowd. We cruise the Bahamas for 5-6 months and are in the Jumentos/Raggeds for 3 of those months every year. Every three years or so we come back through the Abacos and remind ourselves why we don't like them.
