More about the book
Focusing on the unique fleet of cast-off merchant boats, this book chronicles their vital role in connecting over 50 remote Bahamian communities. It details the journeys of more than 200 vessels and the resilient mariners who navigated challenges like hurricanes and political changes to deliver essential goods. The narrative explores the origins of these boats, from European purchases to local constructions, and their fates as wrecks or exports. Enhanced by 150 color photographs, etchings, and charts, it offers an engaging visual and historical account.
