Moorings BVI report

At anchor Jost Van Dyke BVI

In short, our Moorings vacation to the BVI was amazing. This post will only have a sampling of the many awesome anchorages we spent time at and I doubt the photos will do them much justice. Suffice it to say that all of them were amazing. Overall, Moorings did a great job. If I had to complain it would be that the check in/out procedure is a little slow. Waimea, the Beneteau 42.3 we were on was a great boat and we experienced no failures of any sort all week. We condensed a 10 day itinerary into 7 days, so we kept up a good pace sailing around but every place we went was worth it. Cooper island, the baths, bitter end, Eustatia island, Anegada island (the best), Cane Garden bay, Sandy Key, Jost Van Dyke, Sopers Hole and Norman island were all amazing! I created 3 videos that do a much better job of describing our trip than my writing ever could, the links to them are at the bottom of the post. I highly recommend using moorings for any of you thinking about a sailing vacation. Enjoy!!
