Not exactly the same thread but related.
I always purchase the national park permit for my crew when entering the BVI. Even when I know we're not going to use it more than once or twice. I just want to make sure the moorings are available and hopefully in good order (don't burst my bubble and tell me the revenue isn't actually used for that purpose) and I don't mind paying for something that seems like it has some value. It's been a bit hard lately to get any value btw due to squatters on the mooring balls but that's a different story. So we arrived at West End the first of Nov with a total crew of 5. We were going to be in the BVI for 3 days. I clear out of C&I with the park permit. It wasn't until I was back on the boat that I figured out that I had been charged 5 people * 6 dollars a day * 3 days = $90. The park permit cost (printed on the form) is $75/week for up to 6 people. Yup... I guess I got the special of the day! Welcome to the BVI!
Life's short - sail more!
