		Mayaguana Island lies in the southern Bahamas, west of Caicos and east of the Plana Cays.
		However, it is possible to salvage a pretty good theory from the Mayaguana landfall by simply using Varnhagen's route from Mayaguana to Crooked, and Fox's route from Crooked forward -- avoiding the west coast of Long Island.
		Thus repaired, the Mayaguana theory has few weaknesses and many strong points, including a nice surrounding reef, and by far the best fortifiable peninsula at Island I (see the landfall clues page).
