duh no knowledge, bless your heart YachtReprise! And an expert on JVD to boot! Impressive.

The original poster asked for suggestions and tips, he got well thought out responses. I am a lover of animals and especially dogs. We take our golden boating on the regular in the 1000 Islands, NY., with that being said, even though our dog is an experienced boater, I wouldn’t subject him to a plane ride, in the summer heat, especially on my [b] first [b] bareboat experience in the BVI.

To each his own......Have a lovely day.


Awww shucks, not an expert. Just a casual visitor for 35 years, business operator, resident, whose daughter was born in the BVI. But by no means an expert. And thanks for your blessings. Now my day...no my LIFE...is complete!

Anywho, Sean, before Godwin's Rule comes to pass, if I can help with any advice, please PM me. I'd be happy to share my local knowledge...although, again, I'm not an expert. (Wait, am I? I'm so confused now!)
