On and Off the Beaten Path: The Cent/South Bahamas Guide
The initial review looks great! When I get to the Bahamas the real review will begin.

Lacking
I am heading to the Southern Bahamas so you would think that this guide would be perfect. I am getting ready to take off for the Bahamas next month so I decided to take a trip to the ship's store and have a look at the cruising guides. It is NOT. I took a quick look through the contents and index and discovered he did not cover the Exumas. How could this be? Ah. . . Mr. Pavlidis wants you to buy YET ANOTHER of his books, one specifically covering the Exumas. Appauling. How can you say you are covering the central and southern Bahamas WITHOUT even one chapter on the Exumas?

I think I will stick with my trusty Yachtsman's guide to the Bahamas. It actually covers the Bahamas. It does not leave out A WHOLE ISLAND CHAIN in order to suck up another 30 bucks.

The book's name should be The Central and Southern Bahamas Guide EXCLUDING a Great Deal of the Southern and Central Bahamas.

Good Grief!.

One of the best
It also assumes you are a competent tropical water sailor and wont do stupid things like run into rocks, etc. Pavlidis' guide will get you to places you didnt think you could visit. Where other guides state "local knowledge required" for an area Pavlidis gives you the best current info and then warns you to be aware of possible changes and hazards. If you want to find places where there is still a lobster under every rock and no other boats in sight, this is the guide to use.
