I disagree with booking through a charter company. We have boat with Voyage right now and there is no advantage because of the charter.
We have a friend booking at 7am stateside. So maybe the internet connection is the issue.
To clarify earlier posts, if you book through BB they act like a broker and get a fee from the charter company. They then give you the ability to reserve balls ahead of time. So many of the BB balls are already reserved before 7am. No high speed WiFi is going to beat that.
The idea that people sailing the BVIs have folks at home sitting at computers at 7am to reserve balls is just ridiculous. We thought Irma would reset the BVIs to an earlier time but instead there is no escaping technology. For me the answer is not sailing in the high season until the capacity is restored. I am not going to do the mooring ball dance.
