Wow, so much information!

Thanks for the tip on the Sunsail 444... that boat looks absolutely perfect for our crew. I think i'm going to call sunsail and discuss my sailing background. The only things I'm nervous about are docking and anchoring. I've done both a ton as crew, but not ever as pilot. I have sail racing experience (albeit on much smaller boats) so understand the sailing aspects well, but docking in particular is something i would be somewhat nervous about. I would think picking up moorings on a cat would be even easier than a mono, so no real concerns there. I love the idea of a check-out captain for a day... might be something I ask for.

As far as flights, I am consistently finding it cheaper to fly into EIS than STT. Best fares seem to be around $650 PP and get us in early afternoon to beef island.

Where is the sunsail base and where do you typically provision?

Thanks everyone! I'm so excited to go back as it's been 8 years since my last BVI charter. Things have certainly changed a bit though since my first in 1985!
