Sailing BVI

Thanks AuldScot, ...

Actually, he called himself Auldsot, but maybe there's not all that much difference! (Ducks for cover...)

Stop overnight

You cannot fly direct to Tortola. Rather than arriving on either BA or Virgin and waiting all day for the the flight to Tortola and thus arriving knackered, go striaght to a cheap hotel in Antiga. Stay one night and then get up the next morning to take an early flight. Much more relaxing and a good way to break into the time change. We did not do this and regretted it. Coming back there is much less time between arriving in Antigua and flying out Virgin, so not a problem

Thanks flawed_logic. I did check and they said that they have a max of 12 boats on a flotilla and that we will be the sixth on this one so hopefully there will actually be a flotilla!! I did wonder if it would be quiet as all the websites don't mention October. Mind you I think I prefer quiet to crowded and as long as we can get a drink and a bite to eat somewhere it should be good.

I checked the diary and it was September not October we went so hopefully you'll be fine but it will be hot!
