I am researching crewed charter trips to the BVI. I have come across numerous companies that provide this. Can anyone provide any reviews for this. Thanks.

CJ: Are you talking about day trips or term charters? For day trips, you can get some pretty good advice here. For term charters, I recommend a charter yacht broker like Ellen Stewart at http://www.stewartyachtcharters.com/. (tu)

I am interesting in a catamaran for week. 3 couples. I will try your recommendation. I have done many daytrips from St. John and decided to "live" on the boat for a week.

Has anyone heard of Festival Sailing? I am seeing a lot of good reviews about them.

CJ: I promise you that a broker will help you much more than we will. Their job is to match your needs and budget to the available boats and crew. Good reviews are not very helpful if the reviewer has different requirements!

I sent a message to the broker that you referred me to, but have not heard back from them. Thanks for the advice.
