Looks like he is attempting to win by drowning us in unrelated data. Nothing in those tables contridicts the fact that hotel executives, auditors and financial wizards are only a miniscule fraction of the arrivals.
I guess you missed the question asked?
"What I'd really love to know is what is the occupancy rate of charter boats vs hotels."I am not sure how you would measure nor have I ever read a "boat occupancy study". With those three BVI data points you can make your own determinations on the value of the boat versus the land overnight visitors.
What many seem to be missing is no airport makes money or a profit on flights. Airports are just one of the required bits of infrastructure every 21st Century market must have. The BVI is no different. Just like roads, airports are expensive you simply cannot prosper without them. If you want the villas, inns, hotels, and future boat operations to do well. You will need a path to jet service from the primary market the US East Coast.
