I have been a couple of times. It can be very interesting and fun. Last
time I went, had an engine failure on takeoff on return trip. Not a good
place to have mechanical problems. Long story on replacing engine and
getting plane back to U.S. so I won't bore you with details.
My advice, have backup plans for your backup plans but have a great time.

Wondered if anyone had some tips on flying a C172 (or similar) to the

Bahamas
from FXE (Ft. Laud. Exec.) ??

e.g. best guidebook, rafts needed?, easiest island to fly to, customs
procedures, etc.
