This bit of language below may help with some of the charter boat worries. I wonder what the total number of non-reported day visitors are before the changes? The cruise ships pay a long list of fees plus a bulk tax of $15 for each passenger they land.

'Her Majesty’s Customs rules which now requires all non-resident day excursion visitors to personally present their identification to Her Majesty’s Customs"

How much of a toll could be levied on each day visitor? Or would the BVI be better off if the day visitors were pushed onto ferries? [/quote]

That was adequately reported and discussed here.
