Just stopped by a master marine with an alternator and was told they do not service them.
Bahamas Chatter: Harbour View Marina in Marsh Harbour announced the installation of five new moorings available for $15 a night.
A general comment. It seems that BEC is only putting out 103 to 110-volt current at most islands. Whether this is policy or not the result is the slow destruction of the windings on small electric motors such as air conditioning, pumps and refrigeration. An accessible voltage monitor is now almost a necessity when cruising.
