I counted 3 Smiths boats in various states of repose on warfs and piers. Looks like a pretty bad mashup across from TMM where the Smiths fleet ties up in a couple of Caribbean Buz vids. 2 of Speedy's aground near Collision Point 1 on the breakwater in Spanish Town. One of New Horizon's on top of Sidney's in Little Harbor.
No indication of RTFF or Native Son fleets condition but yesterday RTFF made a government sanctioned evacuation run to STT and was refused landing by HLS. Native son will be attempting another run today. BVI gov seems to be announcing these ferry evacuation runs without getting aproval from the USVI.
BTW, West End terminal is nothing but a slab and a couple of walls.

Airport is supposed to have flights out today - seems like some flights got some people out yesterday as well.

Yes, from what I've seen, all flights to STT. I also some something about a ferry today to STT to get people to the cruise ship. All 2nd/3rd hand at least so I can't speak to the accuracy, but some of it I've seen a few times by different people.

Speedy has started service between VG and Beef. No Roadtown or St Thomas service currently. Originally only one boat was running, the Delight. Looks like they got the cat off the breakwater wall and it may be in service too.
