NorthBay...By passagemaking costs I refer to the fuel used to get there and back and to the customs fees...($300).

Joey...if you want to take your Oday to the Abacos from Florida for a month with minimal expenses...assuming 2 people here's what I would consider minimal:
Passport fees?
$150 for customs
$600 for food and laundry.
$100 bucks for hot freshwater showers (10 each)
$400 for boat and dinghy fuel. (100 gallons)
$100 Water is free at fuel docks but I recommend bottled for drinking

Of course...prepping the boat for crossing the Gulf Stream, insurance if you get it and additional $$ for recreation/fun budget are not included in the above.
