Spanish Wells Yacht Haven - DO NOT BUY WATER
Just wanted to make sure you don’t make the same mistake that we did and the 2 other boats travelling with us. We purchased 131 gallons of water at $.20/gallon and it was the WORST salty water we purchased during our 2 month trip to the Abacos & Eleuthera. It was so bad that we had to dump all of it. Could barely take a shower with it and even when it was put through our water purifier it was still awful. We are now disputing the charge with our credit card company. BEWARE – DO NOT BUY!
