BVI Bareboat Charter
VI Sailing Team
“Joann was amazing, never more than an hour to respond to an email question. And the up to date cruising guide was helpful.
More importantly, VI Sailing was instrumental in finding a charter company with boats certified to cross between the USVI/BVI border. So few options for that now…”
Charter Company & Yacht
Yacht: Happy Ours
“The boat was in great shape. It had a new jib, bigger than typically seen on charter cats and sailed well, 7-8 knots.
We got the best of both worlds – the beach bars and restaurants in the BVI, along with all that fabulous sailing area between the many islands. And then the snorkeling and hiking in the National Park on St John.”
