A couple of friends mentioned that I was going way overkill. Sounds like getting to the SVIs from the VIs is a milk run, with a good bit of upwind working getting back.

Well, I like the navigation and want to keep my skills up. Doing the pre-trip research, I'm pretty surprised at the lack of current info/cruising guides for an area so close to St. Thomas.

As I mentioned, the Frank Virgintino free 2012 guide is the most recent information we've found. it looks good.

I'll write an SVI trip report after/during our October trip and focus a bit on resources and my favorites. We're pretty excited about this trip. 29 days does not suck,

Cheers, RickG
