We have learned a couple of things over the past few years:

1. Move the boat less and enjoy more. However, with a week and so many nice places to go, I can understand the desire to do so much.
2. Avoid nosing in through the narrows with a moderate to meaningful east to southeast wind. The day you leave Jost and head to Norman or Peter will not be a smooth ride unless the wind is really down. We are not sailors and are on a power cat, but we always take the northern route around Tortola (with the protection of the island) when heading east from Jost.

By the way, we are also flying down on June 16th, but through San Juan into Beef Island. We will be on a 43 Moorings power cat and there will be 4 of us (wife and two daughters). We will be flying an ECU Pirates flag. Hope to see you.
