Yes, the BVI government changed the law for this season for charters originating out of the USVI cruising in the BVI. Tax was ~$20k per year per vessel. We did it twice last year, but that made it 8 or 9 nights.
The Moorings are very successful for over 50 years a reason. I’ve charted with them throughout the Caribbean and five times in the Mediterranean. Have never had a bad experience.
But we have moved on and improved the quality of our trips now with all inclusive crewed charters. For some reason, we have discovered that we are not getting younger! And it is much easier to still have a sailing experience with somebody else having the responsibility and enjoy fantastic food with professional chefs.
We are currently in Anegoda today on our second trip this year, doing 8 nights each trip. Much easier flying into EIS, captain waiting at the door, walk to Trellis, dingy waiting, and quickly aboard. Mid week start with first two nights in North Sound and Anegoda, not as busy as early March was.
This is fourth trip with
&Beyond Yacht Charters - Great people, 25 boats in the fleet. All inclusive charters. They moved their base from St Thomas to SpanishTown this season, but the charter can meet you anywhere. Very convenient. We're on
A3 a 56' Lagoon - ❤️ her!
I’ll try a trip report, but it takes time from having so much fun!
