BEERMAN - Unlikely you could arrive at 1pm and be sailing at 4pm. Reviewing the boat check-list, getting yourself aboard, doing the sail-check, etc... it would be pretty difficult.

Frankly I don't want that kinda pressure to hit a schedule while on vacation.

We arrive after noon, boat check, get installed on board, ladies go shopping while I guard and test the beer, we get dinner, sleep aboard, and depart the next morning bright and early.

As far as mechanical issues in the BVI... it's helpful to be a bit handy around boats. CYOA does not offer a chase boat, but they have people lined up in the BVI that can work on the boat if things go wrong. Once we pulled into Sopers Hole to have someone fix the generator... burnt crimp connector. I have generator impeller replacement time down to about 30-minutes. Generators hate me for some reason.
