I admit to getting a little long in the tooth, occasionally having some trouble finding my car keys, but I don't remember any substantial improvements on Saba Rock in the early 80's.
According to
http://www.sportdiver.com/destinations/british-virgin-islands/last-pirate-caribbean, "In l989, Hurricane Hugo blew through the BVI and did enough damage to temporarily kill off the dive business, so Kilbride opened the Pirates Pub on Saba Rock." If that's correct, then in the early '80s there wasn't much on Saba Rock except maybe Kilbride's driftwood house and dive shop, so perhaps you could forgive me for not remembering the improvements from so many years age. I also have a picture from 1980 which sort of bears that out, but I can't figure out how to attach it.
