We've done the south side many times. Swell + chop is not fun, so we check the weather first and turn back if things are too frisky. But we've had days, including in January, where it was very calm and a relaxed sail. The sail from Coral Bay, St. John to North Sound, Virgin Gorda last January was particularly nice. We head out to the south drop and fish on the way and have gotten bonita, mackerel and barracuda.

Cheers, RickG
