BVI info

Does anyone have any experience chartering with the BVI Yacht Charter company? We are considering a bareboat charter on one of their Leopard 45s.

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

I've not encountered "BVI Yacht Charter Company" before and know many of the companies down there. Where are they based?

Tortolla.

I've checked a few other forums and so far all the comments I have found have been very positive.

does it say which marina or do they have a URL? I really did think that I'd seen most of the charter companies there that actually have boats (as opposed to the many brokerages).

If you want you can bring insome provisions to cut the cost of the charter. We normally stay for 2 weeks just the 2 of us and bring i about 49 lbs of frozen foods, mostly many types of meats in their original packaging so they can see that it is US Grade A meats. We buy all our liquor and wine from the warehouse stores and some large liquor distibutors in Road Town. One Mart has a free shuttle van that will take you from the base to the Supermarket and back. Their prices are usually a little higher but convenient, clean and fresh produce.
