Thanks for sharing Denny. We've done much of the same with several excursions to St. John and St. Thomas. One year we sailed down to St. Croix for a week which was awesome. But, in general, we spend most of our time in the BVI....there's more to do and many more anchorages. We are hoping to do a two-week trip soon (post-COVID) from BVI to SVIs to St. Croix and back to BVI.
Regarding clearing in/out, we've had the opposite experience. Clearing in to the US at Cruz Bay has always been a breeze. Friendly and relatively quick. Even easier with the CBP Roam app. Clearing back in to BVI, almost which out exception, has been a pain in the [censored]. Surly attitudes, long waits, you name it. That goes for West End and Road Town. The times we've cleared in to Jost have been fine. In general, tho, not worth the trouble for a one or two night stay in the USVI.
BTW - Cooper Island Resort is currently closed. I heard they will be closed for the 20/21 season.
Husker, out.
