We’ve chartered with Barefoot and I really liked them. Their chart briefing was excellent. We had an older boat but it handled well. We did have engine problems and the charter company was responsive although we had to pay for the work done and were reimbursed. When we had similar issues when on a Sunsail boat we did not have to pay. I highly suggest doing a one way. We’ve done both and felt rushed when we had to return to St. Lucia. We were pretty lucky with weather so the upwind sails weren’t too bad but still long and uncomfortable. One way is so worth it not just for the fact that you don’t have to do the slog back but because you get to see so much more of these beautiful islands. I grew up down there so I’m sort of biased I have to admit. Oh and I also recommend starting in St. Lucia...it’s such a beautiful island! The Pitons are breathtaking.
