Stuck in Spanish Wells, Bahamas

It turns out that the damage to the boat was much worse than expected. After hobbling the boat over to Spanish Wells, using only one engine and at the fantastic speed of a whopping 5 miles per hour, the mechanics at the boatyard hauled the boat out of the water. Once the boat was on land it was obvious that we'd be stuck here for awhile. Parts have to be ordered from Miami and a lot of straightening and re-aligning needs to be done. The propeller was mangled and although we had a spare, we didn't have spares for all the other stuff that was bent up. "Well," I thought, "the weather is great and the scenery is beautiful. There are plenty of worse places to be stranded."

That was one week ago and now I can't wait to leave. Not only is my home propped up at a 15 degree angle (I measured) but there is really nothing to do here. We don't go out to eat because the food is nasty and deep fried - no fresh fish anywhere on the island! “What’s the big deal? Cook on the boat,” you say. Hey, YOU try cooking a meal when your kitchen is tilted at 15 degrees and everything wants to slide off the counter into the sink!
There is NO liquor served or sold anywhere on the island, there's no movie theater, no library (no book store even!), no video rental, no art gallery...not much of anything. It's no wonder the kids just drive around the island all night with their music blasting. There's nothing else to do!
That's another strange thing - the island is only 2 miles long by 1/4 mile wide. Having a vehicle is really unnecessary, but no one here walks. They either drive a fancy, new car or they putt around in golf carts or on scooters. I think it all stems from having too much money and nothing to do. The kids drop out of school at around 14 years old - the girls to get married and the boys to go lobster fishing - The guys who fish (which is most of them) make about $60,000 per year. They spend their cash on cars and drive around in circles all day and part of the night - occasionally changing direction so as not to get dizzy.
