Yacht Charter Brokers in the Virgin Islands.
Here is an article that we posted on our website describing the annual Yacht Broker Shows in the Virgin Islands. Both the British Virgin Islands and the US Virgin Islands have their own shows that are run back to back.
We've included several of the luxury yachts are favorites of ours and often recommend to our clients. Also, we've listed several of our best-loved locations for walks about the Islands as well as a few 'honor bars' where you can quench your thirst!
Yacht Charter Brokers in The Virgin Islands
A Motor Yacht Playground
Annually
there are two charter luxury
yacht boat shows produced for brokers in the Virgin
Islands. One in the British Virgin Islands and the other in the US Virgin Islands. Motor yacht shows have been growing larger and larger, year after year. In these lush aquatic playgrounds of the Virgin Islands the mega yacht has become more and more prevalent as demand for luxurious yacht vacations continues to grow. These magnificent power yachts
are run by professional captains and extremely competent crew members. The crews and
captains live on board year round, with the yacht owner frequently asking the captain to
move to other island destinations once they have fully enjoyed the splendors of one
location.
The purpose in having annual yacht charter broker boat shows is to display an owners' super mega yacht to agents that can acquire customers to book a super yacht vacation or corporate event. A yacht charter group should inspect all the power yachts on display as well as meeting the
captain and crew members.
These shows for charter brokers, including Barrington-Hall allow them to discover which are the better vessels and are crewed with the better teams. Barrington-Hall has been chartering yachts since 1990 and have had many opportunities to have taken
our own pictures of all the yachts we charter as well as all the crew teams we
have met. Our goal is have a cadre of quality of motor yachts available for charters and we do not focus on just having a large quantity of just any yachts.
We are in an envious position to
show our guests current pictures of the crew as well as the vessels we represent.
Barrington-Hall is frequently invited by the motor yacht owners to enjoy a lunchtime meal or a super
luxury breakfast aboard these luxurious yachts. Invitations to sumptuous dinners have also been enjoyed on board a specific
yacht. The benefits are that we get to experience the level of service the crew provides. Additionally, we have enjoyed the excellent cuisine that our guests can expect to enjoy while on board there private yacht vacation. View this video to see the level of world class service and tantalizing foods available to please even the most discriminating pallets during your stay on board:
Of course the
large power yacht may well have the better cuisine on board but here is a delightful entry
level power boat with a wonderful captain and a magnificent chef on board. The Flame is 65 feet long and is a magnificent vintage power yacht that we enjoyed immensely. So surprised by the quality of this vessel that when asked, the captain took 2 of us out for an entire day to enable us experience the yacht first hand and get acquainted with the crew. We were impressed by the
quality and preparation of the cuisine that was served to us on board. We discovered that the cuisine on board FLAME equaled the top
power yachts in the world . We highly recommend the Flame as a perfect private yacht for a one week motor yacht vacation in The Virgin Islands.
You can view
the 65' Flame here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLsKoIltrLI
and at just $15,500 for a week long all-inclusive vacation for 6 adult guests, it is a steal.
After the
British Virgin Islands it is off to the wonderful United States Virgin Islands
and to inspect their power boats for the next year. Each year these 2 boats
shows alternate with their dates. When we walked on board the famous Flame vessel she was fully stocked with her magnificent Belgium chocolates. The captain on
board Flame family owns a Belgium chocolate factory, so guests are showered with chocolates while on board their motor yacht.
A week in the
beautiful Virgin Islands may not be long enough
to satisfy your need to see where mother nature combined coral
reefs and islands so close together. Foot print free beaches, gin clear water,
coconut palms and water sports to keep every child and adult happy. Scuba diving,
snorkeling, water skiing, kite surfing, paddle boarding and even ocean kayaks to
explore mangrove coves.
There are 32 islands and cays which form the
British Virgin Islands. Their beauty above all else is that these islands
are formed in a semi-circle which prevents the ocean swell from entering a 25 mile
by 5 mile which protects the area so motion problems are never a problem. A perfect aspect is that each island is within eye sight meaning your
private yacht can cruise from island to island in about 20 minutes. This is flat water even when the wind is blowing which is very unusual. You can cruise in your mega
yacht to out of the way hotels and 5 star hotels dotted
on various islands in the sun including two locations where you can find an
honor bar.
What is an
honor bar?
An honor bar is where you walk into a restaurant which is totally open during the day and not one person is in sight, where a fully stocked bar awaits quests for the evening meal and you are welcome to drink whatever you wish to drink. An example is Wilfred’s Restaurant, where when you are ready to go you leave the amount of USD on the table for the staff to find when they start their 4-11 shift . Wilfred’s is at Pomento Point on Anageda.

A second honor bar is at
Bira's Creek on a lovely beach facing east, this beach has water toys and coconut
palms and in one corner you will find an open round thatched cabana. Look behind the bar and
open the wooden refrigerators, there is almost any drink you can imagine. When you leave have your captain lead you on the beautiful walk to Bira's Creek Hotel to settle up.
Visitors
don't want miss going to the Soggy Dolla Bar during the day. You can order their now famous
“Pain Killer” or enjoy a night under the coconut palms at Foxy’s. I highly recommend taking a walk around Sandy Cay where this little uninhabited island
has thick under growth and leads up to a 75 foot cliff. So
take your camera, flip flops and bug spray as this is a side trip well worth taking.
Also, the visit the famous Baths and then you can take a short stroll from the Baths to Devil's Bay which is another 'must do' walk. Don't forget to take your camera and flip flops. Plus, if you have the time, visit The Bitter End Yacht Club and Caulaquon
Barrier Reef where you can snorkel with your motor yacht captain on the outside of this
barrier reef, not the simple side of this reef.
The
United states Virgin Islands has some wonderful anchorages but no where
near as many as the British Virgins. Cruise on board your motor yacht in the privacy with your family and friends to
Megan's
Bay. Megan's Bay was recently rated the 8th best bay in the world
by Conde Nest and it is simply gorgeous. Other bays to
visit while on your luxury yacht vacation are the Hawksnest Bay, Leinster Bay and Christmas Cove is a wonderful
bay to stop and enjoy.
True story
here: One evening we were sipping happy hour drinks on board our private yacht when we noticed what we thought was a
dog swimming directly out from St John. The
only island where the dog could be swimming towards would have been St Croix - located 33 miles away! Knowing we would feel terribly guilty if we did not try to save the
dog, we jumped into a tender and headed off in pursuit. Well, what we thought was a dog was not a
dog at all - is was a wild deer! We ended up getting the deer turned around in the right direction to be able to swim back to land. Once there, he wiggled his tail and quickly disappeared into the under growth of St John. Yes! There are
deer in the Virgin Islands.

Sail 4 Cancer Named as Event Charity
Sail 4 Cancer Named as Event Charity
22 April 2013, Fort Lauderdale, FL: The ISS (International Superyacht Society) is pleased to announce plans for its Annual UK-based ISS Regatta.
This year’s event will be held from June 7-9. Last year’s winner, BMT Nigel Gee will return to defend their title. With eight boats already confirmed, 12 to 15 are expected. Racers convene in Hamble on the evening of June 7th, spend the night on June 8th in Cowes and conclude racing on June 9th. Participating companies will rent one-design boats from Fairview and crew them with staff, vendors and clients.
The ISS Regatta has quickly grown into a great event for just-plain fun, networking and socializing. To further enhance participation, the Regatta also promotes a philanthropic directive: for 2013, Sail 4 Cancer has been named the Event Charity.
“We are delighted to be the official charity of the ISS Regatta. The superyacht industry has been very supportive of us as these companies understand how sailing can help people going through a very difficult time. All the money raised from the event will be used to arrange sailing days for the families we help. Cancer is a very cruel disease and has a devastating effect on everybody in the family. When the families are out on the Solent in a beautiful boat they enjoy just being a family doing something adventurous together and can leave the stress of cancer on land for a while” says Lizette van Niekerk, Fundraising Manager for Sail 4 Cancer.
