Bahamas Welcomes Back Boaters; Bring Your Masks
​The Bahamas will begin welcoming back foreign cruisers beginning July 1. They'll expect advance notification of your arrival, and you'll be expected to wear a mask while ashore and practice all the social distancing measures we've become so familiar with. The following report has many of the details; it's probably best that you skip down to the "Marinas" section. It mentions the possibility of being able to clear into the Bahamas somehow in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. It's does not say, however, whether this option is a proposal or a certainty. The news conference announcing the opening made it clear, however, that boaters would be required to fill out a pre-entry screening questionnaire that will be available online.
