Re: Help on First Charter - BVI

You best put on your drinking shoes. Bomba Shack on Tortola for a full moon party, Soggy Dollar bar, bubbly pool on Jost, Willy T's in the bite on Norman Island, good snorkeling there as well, The baths on Virgin Gorda is a good take as well. Bare boated there several times. Never had a bad experience.
Have fun

And we were lucky a couple of nights to have it free as nobody showed up to collect the fee. Cheaper than BoatyBall and no need to get up at 7 am to book one. Most are booked by 7:01 anyway.
Thanks!

Re: Help on First Charter - BVI

Bomba’s Shack is no more thanks to Irma. See “BVI Charter Chat” (public) on Facebook where there is a lot of discussion of bareboating in the BVI. Someone has been posting pictures of Bomba’s back in the day. Concerning this thread, we had a good experiences with BVI Yacht Charter last year. Moorings has also been good.
