Cosa tratta questo video
The crew of Doodles transits the Abaco Islands in the Bahamas, stopping at the village of Foxtown on Great Abaco to wait for favorable weather before continuing toward West End.0:54 To tow their dinghy, the crew uses a bridle attached to the hull to prevent fishtailing, maintaining a speed of eight to nine knots.1:32 They anchor outside the rocks in Foxtown, noting poor holding and limited depth, and use a handheld depth sounder to verify the approach to the local fuel dock at high tide.4:47 The village offers limited amenities, including two restaurants and a well-stocked market, though the area sees little cruiser traffic.8:14 After refueling at the town dock, the crew prepares to continue their passage.16:50 The stop confirms that while Foxtown lacks extensive infrastructure, it provides a functional, quiet harbor for provisioning and refueling in the northern Abacos.
