This past Saturday Sir Richard himself joined us at Leverick Bay.

Ok, he didn't necessarily "join" my crew or anything, but he did stop by Jumbies for a drink while we were there. His boat, which I can't in good conscience call a dinghy, cruised by right off our bow in the mooring field.

Sir Richard sightings are a dime a dozen. Really nice guy as billionaires go. Waiting for airsunshine at EIS once I noticed a Falcon 900EX sitting on the far ramp exactly where it was 10 days before and remarked out loud "Who has the money to keep a $40 million jet idle for two weeks?" And a voice behind me says "I do."

Turned around to find Branson with a big grin on his face. He shook my hand and proceeded out on the tarmac followed by his entourage. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" />

Actually we see him a ton especially on charter changeover days when he and his crew someimes run their hobie cat races through the north sound. Especially see him at Saba Rock. He and crew and family very kind to us and no it's not because he buys us our bushwhackers all the time...just sometimes! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Joy.gif" alt="" />

That's awesome!! We saw him pull in and out of Leverick in his "dinghy" last spring.
