Just wondering how the mooring fields are. Any place to avoid?

Last week, we moored at Peter, Cooper, Anegada, B-Line and Great Harbour and all were in good shape. The balls at B-Line are less than 2 months old.

In addition to above, Norman Island, Diamond Cay recently used... I think all have been used sufficiently since Irma to have csome confidence in them, BUT...
Always back down on ball. Reverse engines steady at 1@1500 rpm... If it breaks off, better "now" than in middle of night.
Also suggest using Anchor Alarm such as "Anchor Alarm Pro" or "Drag Queen", even when on a mooring ball.

Thanks for the update. Backing down sometimes you break all but a few cords that then break at night!
Thanks again.

Thanks again. I guess "Pick your poison". I guess if I have one give way at night, I will say "TIMRIM warned me".

The mooring field in Cane Garden Bay is in good shape.

Not sure if it's been inspected, but it's been heavily used since December.
