The choice of adventures to celebrate my 60th b-day was a chartered sailing adventure in the BVI
I have been missing in action on our Caribbean Islands Realty site for the past two weeks because of taking time with my wife and friends chartering Double Feature - a Lagoon 57 with Jonny as the Captain and Kelly as the First Mate / Chef. What a time we had exploring old and new adventures in the British Virgin Islands! We started our adventure by checking out several real estate projects in the USVI and the BVI that have contracted our real estate marketing services; Dolphin Cove Resort; Ritz Carlton Residence Club; and, Raffles Tortola. We had hoped to fit in some time on the Turks & Caicos visiting L’Emeralde, but our travel schedule was changed because of weather.
We took the ferry from Red Hook and met Double Feature at Village Cay Marina with our charter guests and immediately sailed to Norman Island at The Bight for our first anchorage. That began another adventure of a lifetime! The activities on a chartered sailing vacation are over the top; snorkeling, diving, water skiing, wakeboarding, wind surfing, kayaking, reading, napping, journaling, and the non-stop 5-star meals from Kelly’s galley, and fine wines from around the world and Captain Jonny’s daily cocktail menu. None of our guests on this charter vacation had ever done it before! And, for the last ten months of planning I told them that there is no way to truly describe the experience that will happend during this type of Caribbean adventure. If you ever run into this crew they will tell you I was correct. They could not believe what unfolded during our time on Double Feature.
In addition to all the work we do in serving our Caribbean real estate clients, I have a charter yacht vacation brokerage company, Navigations, that not only books charter vacations in the Caribbean, but all over the world - from Europe, Mexico, and the South Pacific! (If you want more information about this type of adventure, email me. I will send you all you need to know about the cost and planning required.) There will be lots more information coming on future blog postings regarding my 60th birthday sailing adventure, but for now, I need to plug back into the world of real estate and my Caribbean lifestyle dective work. Until next time…
