1st Charter, 5 days, 1st week of October. Was planning Cooper 1st night (Norman last night) but now I know they're closed. Other recommendations? Peter instead?

Just switch it up. Make Norman your first night and JVD your last. Take a mooring behind Water Point ( almost) in the Bight and enjoy the great snorkling shoreside there, enjoy the Bight's shelter for dingy trip to the Caves, and get yourself fed at Pirates or Willy T.
Truly, I would not be averse to spending first night in Benures Bay, but that would certainly mean breaking into provisions and feeding the crew on the boat, or on the beach. No shirts, no shoes, no service. Maybe even no....... ummmm clothes, if you had it to yourself, or others of the same mind were there with you. I've seen that happen. Not to be counted upon, but in October, a good hand to play.
You really want to spend a wad, have at it. Burgers in paradise taste pretty good when they come off the boat grill, just don't wait for the sun to sink before you start, or you will be grilling by flashlight. Cold adult beverages don't need to be 10 bucks apiece to taste good.
It is your vacation. Take hold of it.
