We will be anchored in Norman Island, and two crew must get back to Road Town. Is there a ferry from Norman to Tortola. My other options would be stop at Peter Island for that ferry, or does anyone know if I could drop them off at the Road Town ferry dock. Thank you

If your'e at Norman, why not drop them off at the West End Ferry dock? Closer to Norman and easier to drop off. Just tie to a mooring ball and run them in on the dinghy.

The boat to and from Norman Island does not go into Road Town. It goes to Hannah Bay which is the other side of the marina at Nanny Cay.
To get to it, you have to drive out past the entrance to nanny Cay, past the convenience store on the left, past the convenience store on the right, over the last speed bump in the straightaway and you'll find the entrance on the left.

Thank you all. Colleen we are headed to Cooper Isl. for lunch, then bring the boat back to "BVI Yacht Charters". I'm are being a bit selfish, trying to get every possible minute on the water, and a different Island. Lianel, when is the earliest the boat leaves Norman. The crew needs to catch a flight out of St. Thomas at 1:00 p.m. Again thank you =============== John

The trips from Norman to Hannah are only in the afternoon - I think you'd have to check and see if you could put them on the boat going back after the first drop-off from Hannah to Norman -- it picks up at Hannah at 10:30am, I believe. Your crew would need to be back well before then to be able to get a ferry to STT in time for a 1pm flight.
How are you able to keep the boat from BVIYC until after lunch??? We've always had to have the boat back by noon at the latest on the day we get off the boat - heading into our fifth charter with them this May.

Hey Bridget, For a fee. The last night of charter we sleep on board. Abbie or Cassie arranges a VERY reliable taxi to meet us at the boat at 7:00am to take us to the ferry. So the last night we enjoy Road Town.

We love the 47'ers. Fast, smooth, and more than enough room for 8 people. If it's anything like "Stray Cat" we will be very happy. Well... just getting out of this cold weather and snow we will be very happy.
