Post by Jamestown »

Hi fellow forumites!

Thanks and Happy New Year!

If you are trying to do a day trip, a cat will be too slow. You will need a powerboat for this. We used Jordon at Caribbean vibe. He was great. We went all over the BVI's in a day. Email me if you have specific questions.

Cool, I've always wanted to visit in August. It's bloody hot in DC, might as well be somewhere fun.

I think you need to decide if you want to sail or snorkel. I love sailing, but you usually end up on the motor going up the channel and sailing back, due to the prevailing winds.

Next trip Christine and I are planning on renting a boat and hitting the Indians after checking in at Tortola. We know the BVIs pretty well and I'm comfortable driving a motor boat since I grew up cycling distance to Annapolis and used my Dad's ski boat summers before I could drive.

Cheers, RickG

Ya, there's a lot of folks in the DC area on the board. Perhaps it's time for a get together?
