Narrative:
I obtained my flight plan. Filed time en route was 2 hours. 1/2 way through flight from F45 direct myam, I was told to abort because I would not make my flight plan time and unlawful to land in bahamas VFR at that time. After talking to nassau radio, landed in freeport, bahamas. Due to filing a 2 hour flight plan on a flight that takes 1 hour 20 mins, it would put me there after customs left at XA30. I landed in freeport and had an argument with customs. I did not have any infractions but am filing the report in case of an international report. The flight plan time I was given was XB14. I would have been there by XA30.
