Once saba and bitter end balls return to service, there will be no purpose for BB ball at North sound. Last edited by warren460; 07/25/2019 07:21 AM.

Virgin Charter Yachts is helping kick off the new BoatyBall website by offering a special 10% discount on any Virgin Charter Yachts charter reserved through BoatyBall! In addition, if you use the new Boatyball website to book your charter with Virgin Charter Yachts you will receive 2 free nights on moorings in the BoatyBall program during your charter. Virgin Charter Yachts specializes in bareboat powercat charters and they offer some of the newest and nicest powercats in the BVI with upgrades not normally seen on 'typical charter' boats including: Volvo IPS engines, Wolf and Subzero appliances, ice makers, water makers, teak decks, etc. BoatyBall has chartered with Virgin Charter Yachts and we know you will love their yachts and exceptional customer service experience! It might be "Christmas in July", but the Holiday charter season is just around the corner and inventory is already becoming limited! Holiday and Spring Break dates are filling up quickly. The 10% discount on Virgin Charter Yachts and 2 free nights stay are good through August 12, 2019. If you have not booked your boat for 2019/2020 then select the button below and start planning your next BVI adventure!

Hadn't thought of this- headed down Aug 1 for the first time in 3 years now and still learning the current state of things. Does this statement imply that getting a ball on Leverick is now more challenging because it's the only place to get a mooring in North Sound? Have never ever shown up to find Leverick full, but wondering now if I have to worry...

Very different situation in the off season. Its going to be a zoo during the next high season. This will continue until Saba and BEYC reopen. It will also help when Sopers and Trellis have some on shore attractions to bring boaters into those anchorages.
