MH is kind of the heart of the Abacos. Lots of space at anchorage and the docks. We are at Harbor View marina for a month but will probably only stay a week. I think you can get anything here but will pay Bahamas pricing which seems to be about double what you pay in the states. We are well provisioned and only pick up a few items...usually fresh vegetables and an ingredient or two for the onboard recipes.
We worked our way here through the north via Spanish Key with a stop at Manjack Key and Green Turtle Key (acutally spelt Cay here). Our night at anchorage in N Manjack included a major thunderstorm at 3am. We loaded the dingy and kayaks before the storm and then dragged our anchor almost to the beach! We are now going to get a Rocna! Green Turtle Cay was fun for a few days....snorkeling, bike riding, swim in the pool, anchored in Black Sound until we had a generator issue, then we moved to BS marina for a couple of nights. Long bike ride around the island.
So, now we wait for a generator pump in Marsh Harbor....Monday? $150 FedEx shipping charge and it could still take a week!
I think if it comes in soon we will move over to the nearby Cays of Great Guana for a week and then go down to the south of the Abacos and stay at Little Harbor. Probably come back here for stays at Hopetown and Man-o-War Cays.
Right now it's virtually calm and the smooth waters entice.
