This year’s BVI Boat Show is now concluded with a Sunday sail and party at Deadman’s Bay on Peter Island!

The BVI Charter Yacht Society  concluded another amazing boat show for both the charter yacht Brokers and the charter yacht Crews.  The Saturday night BASH was memorable for some, and some may not even remember it.  It was pure FUN!  So, those who were able to rally this morning, a group of the charter fleet sailed to Peter Island’s Deadman’s Bay  for a day of water sports, more rum, and a lot of farewells.

The charter yacht community of Crews are an extended Caribbean family from November to June.  And, the Boat Show is one of the few times they are all in one spot.  It is a community of professionals that clearly understand they are members of a very special group.  No matter what a member of this community may need, they are willing to help - anytime.  They all know that this Crew community takes care of each other.  I remember a bareboat charter I captained where I lost my dingy under sail.  I put out a message on Channel 16 for boat captains to keep an eye out for it.  Within less than an hour Captain Whitey from s/v Tamerin called me and let me know he had found it and would meet me at Norman Island with the dingy.  It is an amazing community that always takes care of each other.

So…now to the last day of FUN of the BVI Boat Show experience - Splish Splash at Peter Island.  Lots of water sports, drinks on board and at Deadman’s Beach Bar, and just hanging out in the water.  This year’s show was a bit quieter than past ones, but it was still the place to be in the Caribbean the first week of November for the Charter Yacht Society members and vacation yacht Brokers.  Contact me anytime  for information about the charter yacht vacation experience.  Until next year’s show…fair winds to all of you.
