Matt said: Seems like the biggest issue from a weather perspective is cold fronts coming down from the U.S. You definitely have to think about your anchoring "circle" vs your BVI anchoring "piece-of-pie".

Have been to the Abacos 2X's. Weather the 2nd time was unsettled in March. Lots of wind and cool temps. Have been going to BVI and SVX ever since.

Eva Hill used to post a lot on this forum, and was an expert on the Abacos. She loved the BVI, but I think loved sailing the Abacos even more. A very nice woman. I don't know if she is still around, but her username is "Eva". She has a website Island Time about her various trips.

TackingAg's trip report and video was very good. I did a Sunsail 44 June 2015 for first time. Prob last too.
Skinny water and not enough wind. Had a fine time, no problems, good bars and restaurants. Worried about the Whale, but that was a non-issue.
Abacos forum is good resource of planning.
May go on a buddy's boat next year to Bahamas from Fla to do the GS crossing, but Abacos not on my list for a repeat. BVI always are, but I'm planning Med for 2016.
JPH I spent my money on booze, broads, and boats...the rest I wasted.
