Hello All,

We are looking to come back down for a week in March. We typically charter through Horizon, which I just sent an email to, but wanted to see what other bases are operational. We know Moorings is as well and they do have availability the week we are looking at, but wanted to see what other options we have. There is just three of us, so we just need something with two cabins.

Thank you in advance!
Kermit

Does anyone know of a charter company that's closed?

I don’t think that voyage is open. I hope that I am wrong.

ok, good point. But you wouldn't get a 2 cabin boat from Voyage. Anybody else that may be closed at this point?

That 38 is a FUN boat!! If you are looking to charter from St. Thomas as opposed to Tortola, I highly recommend....we had a blast on that boat.

If you are looking in Tortola, BVI Yacht Charters has a couple of them as well.

also, the Catamaran Company has been full speed ahead with charters, they have a lot of pics/reports on FB from recent charterers.

We're taking out one of the BVIYC 38s in May. Really looking forward to it.

You will love it!! It was a great boat for just two of us. The one we had allowed you to leave the bulkhead down between the salon and the v berth so it was one big, cool space! I don't know if the recent ones in their fleet allow for that but for only two, it was great! We were nice and cool in May with no ac. Sails great! Fast!!

Considering Horizon for this year -- I take it you've had good experiences with them?
