Marsh Harbour sailing - an unique experience
Ask about the depth of the harbor before you rent a boat, and even more importantly, before you attempt to navigate your way in or out of Marsh Harbour, since Hurricane Floyd changed the configuration of the channel. Yachts with deep drafts have reported trouble getting in and out of the port at times. If you'd like to try bareboating in The Bahamas -- seagoing without captain or crew -- Abaco Bahamas Charters, Hopetown, Abaco, can set you up; weekly charters with a choice of eight boats begin at $1,625 (and can go as high as $4,200 during high season), with a $1,500 deposit required. Only experienced sailors can rent. The is one of the leading charter sailboat outfitters in the world. It operates from an eagle's nest perch behind the Conch Inn Resort and Marina, overlooking a labyrinth of piers and wharves -- at least 80 berths, with more on the way -- where hundreds of upscale watercraft are tied up (many of them are for rent). With one of its vessels, you can enjoy short sails between the islands, stopping at white sandy beaches and snug anchorages. Yacht rentals generally range from $455 to $1,280 a day, with a skipper costing another $144 per day, and an onboard cook (if you want one) priced at an additional $124 per day. For the more casual boater, Sea Horse Boat Rentals, at the Abaco Beach Resort, offers some of the best rentals. A 5.5m (18-ft.) Boston Whaler rents for $170 per day, and you can also book a 6.5m (21-ft.) Privateer for $200 per day. Other vessels are for rent, too, and all boats are equipped with a Bimini top, coolers, a compass, and a swimming platform, along with life jackets, a paddle, docking lines, and other equipment. Sea Horse is open daily from 8am to 5pm.
