AYH and Sapphire are pretty exposed. I would just call them all and see who has a reasonable option. Puerto Del Rey is not a bad option. Cheers, RickG S/V Echoes, 2003 Beneteau 423 Grenada

Worth a phone call or email (To someone other than the booking office). Wes s/v Sea Tiger (2022 Lagoon 46) www.BareBoatBVI.com
