BVI rocks!

I am assuming that is the nortech cat that I saw when I was in Tortola back in Nov. The other one looks like a 36 specter.

I love the BVI. Here is a pic of OSO Expat's recently purchased 46 Skater that is new to the Islands. There are actually quite a few go fasts in BVI given the population.
A boaters paradise for sure. I am returning with Team PREDATOR next month for more island hopping and will finish up with BVI Leverick Bay poker run in late May.

Yes, the NT cat now calls Tortola home. Went to BVI from Canada last year.

Wow! Glad to see Expat got a sweet boat! I know he was looking hard for a while there.

We sent a new 37AT down that way a year or two ago. The pictures the owner sends are are nothing short of amazing.

Hey Bob (or anyone else), thinking about taking a trip down there (maybe stay at Daves place) in May. Where do you fly into?

We are flying into Charlotte Amalie(airport code STT), which I believe is St. Thomas (USVI) and then catching a ferry to Tortola to pick up our boats. It's only like 25 miles or so from one end of the BVIs to the other end.

Tank, Beef Island Airport is on Tortolla. You can walk (literally) across the street to the ferry dock at Trellis Bay. The ferry ride is about 45 mins up to Northsound.

Thanks you guys...

Hey, Tank you would love it. No direct flights to Tortola, BVI airport code EIS. I usually fly into San Juan ( SJU ) then take American Airlines or Cape Air from there to Tortola ( EIS ). To get to Saba Rock Resort from there as Jay said walk down to ferry dock at Trellis Bay and take the North Sound Express to Bitter End or Leverick Bay Resort and then Saba Rock ferry picks you up for the short ride to the resort. Or you could just have Team PREDATOR pick you up and take you there !! :) If going in May consider Memorial weekend and take in BVI poker run. You will never have experienced anything like that !

Thanks for the advise and another offer on Predator. We're trying to figure out our plans.
