You can still get the "get away" feel, but probably in different places. Many folks now go to Anegada for its beach bars. The Bee Line by Jost is good. The Loose Mongoose has gone way upscale, no longer a beach bar as before. In my opinion, some of the "name" places have become tourist traps for cruise ship visitors.
Ratman first visited Marina Cay in the 1960s, when the airstrip was still dirt, so he really sees the changes. I've only been going for 26 years, but in that time there are definitely more cars. Back then, a 43' mono was a big boat; now there are mostly cats and they are huge.
