I have chartered from Pro Valor many times. They tell me they are moving out and shutting down. Has anyone heard anything about this?
My second question is: Where to go? I liked the small family set up and ease of business with them. Old boats but they were OK and all reasonable. Any advice for substitutes?
Thanks for any help and info on any of this.

I am not sure you want Brent's name and Pro Valor in the same thread. There is some history there if I recall. No idea who was right or wrong. G

jagmansr said: The history in question is simple. Brent founded ProValor, built it up to a very successful business, he sold it when he needed to return to Canada. After a brief period, with the urging of some boat owners, Brent returned to the BVI and started Captains Compass. With the same ethics and business expertise he operated ProValor, he has built Captains Compass into a very attractive charter company currently offering 9 boats, both cats and monos. The fact his boats are always out on charters shows he provides a highly attractive value. No one matches how well he maintains his boats and his personal attention to the satisfaction of both those who charter and the boat owners. Anyone who has been happy with ProValor the past few years will be more then pleased with Captains Compass. A totally unbiased opinion.

Hope I did not cause a stir by the question but I think I have a couple of places to look around now. Thanks for the help.
