Sailing South to the Bahamas and Caribbean
Are you dreaming about sailing south to the Bahamas and Caribbean but aren't sure what the best routes for getting there are? In this, our most popular boat show seminar, we show you how to escape to these magical islands! Using beautiful video footage from the Distant Shores television series and YouTube Channel as well as still images, music and narration, we share experiences gained from over 30 years of cruising and discuss the best options. Will you head for warmer climes down the ICW, jump offshore or take the Thorny Path? Join in to find out what route makes sense for you and will keep your crew happy and safe. We also outline an achievable plan for a successful tropical cruise and highlight destinations not to be missed.
