I went through this in November. I sent my application for a fishing license to the BVI government, and they informed me that our boat from Dream Yacht was not registered. It was hard to get a straight answer from Dream Yacht, but they made it sound like the BVI government had changed the registration process and they hadn't been able to re-register all of their boats. It was not a BVI problem, it was a charter company problem. I even worked with the US based office for the charter company and they were not able to get the BVI base to respond in a timely manner to have our boat registered, so we ended up having to cancel our fishing gear rental.
