In January, we cleared out of Great Harbor for a next day early departure to Cruz Bay. The gentleman suggested that we "leave with reasonable haste."

Our situation is a bit different going the other direction as we are a private USVI registered vessel. We can clear in and out if we are staying three days or less, but must clear out separately if it is a longer stay. On a charter vessel we are able to clear in and out for a longer period.

I've asked to clear out/in in that order and been told no. Still, worth asking. We bring our BVI paper work when we clear back in, for us it means only a $15 fee the second time around. Again, different situation as we are USVI registered.

We're getting ready to do this exercise across two weeks, with two vessels and crews, one vessel is private and the other is charter. I'm expecting to pay coming and going. I'll still bring my NPT mooring certificate and try to beg off.
