The true Explorer is always dreaming about new islands on the horizon. The Exuma chain is emerging as the premier cruising area in the Bahamas. Our eleventh edition of the Explorer Chartbook Exumas and the Ragged Islands presents the chart coverage of the central cruising ground of the Bahamas, where we first started charting in the 80s. We have also given a complete facelift to all of our original Exuma charts–digitally redrawn to pinpoint accuracy using aerial photographs. We’ve conducted new surveys in many areas, especially most extensively in the Ragged Island chain. (published October 2023)
