You might try at the Yacht Club? Maybe someone wants to take a trip...

Check in Frenchtown at Hook Line Sinker, Betsy's or at the CYOA base - plenty of sailors who may be willing to take a sail - or dinghy over to Crown Bay and ask around at Tickles - there is a bulletin board at Tickles and Hook Line where you can post a sign.

busyengineer said: Need a person to help me sail my boat over to the BVI and back - just anchor duty and maybe help with sails...Today is Monday 9th March - sometime this week would be awesome! Get me a round trip flight from Beef island to SJU and I'll deliver it in one day to anywhere in the BVI. You can have a sleigh ride back to St Thomas

busyengineer said: please forgive me you guys are awesome but if I make it to Christmas Cove means I raised the anchor which is what this is all about - sorry but I do appreciate everything you are (yall) trying to do but just need someone on the bow to check anchor doesn't bust the bow... Huh? I thought you were on a sub 50' mono. Why can't you motor forward a bit and walk to the bow and raise the anchor? It's less than 30' deep in the harbor. Once the anchor breaks out, pick up another 10' of chain and ease away from other downwind boats, hit the autopilot on a safe course and finish raising the anchor at your leisure. Rocna's usually bring up mud from the harbor and I let them hang in the water a few feet under the surface to clean it off anyway. Good luck.

Okay. I assumed you were hanging out on St Thomas. Another idea is the community at Water Island, Crown Bay, Gregerie East Channel. They are all in dinghy distance from you.

Don't worry about the anchor damaging your bow,if it bangs against your bow the most you'll get is a scratch. Or if you see someone passing in a dinghy ask them to tie off your stern and help you pull up the anchor then when finished they can take off.
