Mark...on our other boat...upgrading to a dual anchor platform was a custom job and cost almost 2K. Looking back, I would say you can get away without it for the Bahamas IF you have a good way to secure that second delta once launched without incurring chafe on the bow. As a primary in this case I would get at LEAST a Delta #45. I would also get around 40' of chain for the secondary.
To deploy...you will need to drop your secondary FIRST....and set....then move on the the primary.
We RARELY used our dual set-up. Once when we were dragging in bad holding ground...and other times when we were in the very few high current/tidal reversing spots. So ....I think your thoughts make sense for this area.
