Can anyone share any of their experience with clearing times if you have chartered in USVI with intention of sailing to BVI? We are still considering all our options and narrowing the list of boats down. Our friends found a boat they wanted me to check on that is through a broker in the USVI and when I spoke with them they said that even in May we could experience delays in clearing out of St John and than again into the BVI...sometimes a few hours or a 1/2 day. They indicated this is why they do suggest that if someone chartering is looking to sail mainly in the BVI that they charter out of BVI. Was surprised to hear this and also do not recall clearing taking a lot of time but we chartered over 5 years ago and I understand it is busier now than it was than. Thanks for any comments.
