Good Start March 17, 2006 Paul A. Erdmann (St. Paul, MN) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Great information that is helping plan a schedule for our trip to the BVI.
The Cruising Guide to the Virgin Islands: A Complete Guide for Yachtsmen, Divers and Watersports Enthusiasts August 12, 2005 Aileen E. Whitaker (Fairfax Station, VA) 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I purchased this book prior to a sailing trip through the British Virgin Islands. My family has bareboat chartered in other locations before, but was our first trip to the BVI. This guide was outstanding - gave thorough information about anchoring, mooring and also activities and amenities to enjoy on the various islands. I would highly recommend purchasing this book prior to boating in the Virgin Islands. There is so much to do - we plan to go back next year - we couldn't get to all of the great places this year on a 9 day trip.
An easy guide for some the worlds easiest sailing waters May 25, 2005 spikebones 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
The spiral binder is a simple solution to using the book aboard. While it is true that you'll get a lot of ads it's a fair trade off since you'll only pay about half of what other cruising guides cost and it will show you the services you're likely to use. I find the technical aspects of this guide (anchoring, mooring, customs, etc.) to be clear and accurate. I've used some well respected guides for other areas that were not so.
Don't go sailing in the BVI without this... January 9, 2002 Alan B. Scholl (Antigua, West Indies) 14 out of 14 found this review helpful
I recently did a sailing course in the BVI and this book came as part of the package. It was an invaluable asset to sailing in the Virgin Islands and I highly recommend it before going there. Details on restaurants, places to anchor for the day and overnight anchorages. This is a great reference book!
The best single source of information for the VI sailor. March 12, 2001 K. S. Duffield Jr. (Gainesville, Florida) 14 out of 15 found this review helpful
If you only had one publication to take on a trip to the Virgin Islands this would be it. The updates are good which means their research is working and I am really pleased to see the return to a spiral binding. This works so well when you want it to stay opened to a particular page.
