Do you offer bareboat as well as crewed charters?

Yes. The BVI is the world’s most popular bareboat ground for good reason: line-of-sight navigation, short hops, mooring balls waiting at day’s end. If you have the skipper resume, we can arrange it; charter companies here will ask for a sailing CV rather than a specific license.

That said, our specialty is the crewed side, and the honest pitch is this: the gap between managing the boat and being hosted on it is bigger than the price difference suggests, especially with a chef aboard and the bar stocked. See crewed vs captain-only.

A good middle path for confident sailors: captain-only for the first BVI trip, then decide whether you missed the wheel or loved the freedom from it.
