Default banana varieties that are more tolerant to drought

Hello fellow banana growers,
I am looking for a variety of bananas that is somewhat tolerant to drought conditions that we could grow in the southern Bahamian islands. I have not been able to find any literature that compares varieties based on this factor and wonder if anyone out there has some input on this subject. We get plenty of rain in the summer but the winter/spring can be quite dry and the aquifer is limitted so I would like to find a variety that is as hardy as possible for these conditions.

Thanks,
Tim
