Shipboard cleanliness (the equipment, not the people!) & sanitation (both equipment & people) are extremely important when the alternatives are firefighting, damage control, & food poisoning. No one skimps on those and lives to talk about it.Ed_The_Gypsy said:No, but I have heard tales that they are hygene-challenged. :

I'm not Dory, but the sea distance between Freeport and Ft.Lauderdale is about 80 nautical miles.Jane_Doe said:My husband and I looked into buying property in Freeport, Grand Bahama Island as a winter getaway/second home. We were told that island people frequently went over to the mainland (Ft. Lauderdale area, I think) to get groceries, supplies, etc. I (thought I) understood that it was a relatively quick trip - less than an hour or so by boat each way.
SO, the question is - where are you going from/going to in the Bahamas that will take (can't find original post but believe you said) 15 - 20 hours trip over??
Recent sinking of a ferry in BC waters...
