We are planning on doing the same thing on our charter in June. Only we are starting our charter in Puerto Rico and are planning to sail from Jost straight to Culebra on our return trip. I know that you don't have to clear into the USVI when coming from Puerto Rico and I believe it is okay to sail straight from the BVI to the SVI without clearing in at St. Thomas or St. John, but I'm not positive. So, I e-mailed C&I on Friday with that exact question. I was going to call them but I would rather have something I can print out directly from them in case I get hassled so I thought e-mail would be better. Haven't heard back yet but I will post when I do.
Incidentally, I also asked if we had to sail to Ensenada Honda to clear customs or if it would be okay to clear in from a different location as long as we are willing to show up in person. Conditions permitting, we are hoping to sail to Flamenco and call from there to clear in (and taxi to the airport if necessary).
