That marked channel has the best channel marking in the BVI and is obvious starting well out from Saba Rock. Unless you're below with the boat on autopilot I can't imagine how you could end up on the other side.

Anyone have good suggestions on relaxation methods for owners that doesn’t involve copious amounts of rum? Rum was always my first choice.....!

Maybe the charter captain was a little too relaxed as well?

Sad and makes me a bit angry given my own recent experience. We saw Aloha - a sistership to the one we were on - a number of times, possibly with different crew. I had a conversation with the base manager in Tortola where he assured me that charterers would be held accountable for violating zones or gross negligence. I wonder.
