Ferry or water taxi? Here's a quick breakdown of your two main options for getting from St Thomas, USVI to Tortola, BVI for your yacht charter. 🚢 FERRY (~$100 return per person) • Three main crossings: morning, midday & afternoon • Departs from Red Hook or Charlotte Amalie, St Thomas • Arrives in Road Town or West End, Tortola • Multiple ferry companies rotate different days 🚤 WATER TAXI (~$800 + $50–60/person BVI clearance fees) • Direct, fast crossing — much quicker than the ferry • They handle customs clearance for you (in and out all day, know the officers) • Drop you directly at your charter yacht • More expensive, but saves time and hassle 📖 Full guide — Start in St Thomas or BVI? https://mybvicharter.com/bvi-yacht-charter-start-usvi-or-bvi/ 🔍 Search BVI Charter Yachts: https://mybvicharter.com/bvi-crewed-yacht-charter-search/ 🌴 Plan Your BVI Yacht Charter: https://mybvicharter.com/ ⚓ DMA Yachting — Charter Experts Since 2005: https://dmayachting.com/ https://mybvicharter.com/ https://mygreekcharter.com/ https://mycroatiacharter.com/ https://bahamasmotoryachts.com/ https://mymallorcacharter.com/ https://mycorsicacharter.com/ https://myturkishcharter.com/ https://charterguru.com/

► Full report in Multihulls World N°201: https://www.multihulls-world.com/articles-catamaran-trimaran/cmc-race-and-rally-2025-the-fun-rendezvous-for-multihulls ► For its sixth edition, the CMC hasn’t set the record the number of participants, with 23 multihulls registered. On the other hand, the atmosphere both on and off the water has never been better. The trade winds, in fine form at between 20 and 25 knots, undoubtedly had something to do with it... The five entrants in CSA 1 enjoyed superb courses towards Saba, Saint-Barts and Anguilla. The HH66 Lee Overlay Partners (ex Nemo) put on a great show, impressively flying a hull and, above all, peak speeds pushing 30 knots. The Gunboat 72 Layla was not to be outdone, with her GPS recording a top speed of 24.5 knots. The La Grande-Motte shipyard's first flybridge catamaran won the overall race on corrected time. The Diam 24 fleet was of course severely tested by the choppy conditions, but there too, they put on quite a show. In this fury of spray and exciting runs, the crew of Anomaly came out on top, leaving their rivals with no chance of a rematch. For the past two years, the CMC has been running a second division called Rally. This year, the 9 participants were accompanied - and looked after - by our Marketing Director Gwen Dorning. The fleet headed to Phillipsburg, where beach games were organized on the first day, followed by a fireworks display in the bay, then headed for Anse Marcel and finally Saint-Barts - a dream program which is already scheduled for next year, with dates running from January 29 to February 1. ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 600 multihulls tests!

Ever fancied running away to sea? 🌊⛵️ Hi! I’m Georgie, a deckhand on the Götheborg of Sweden, and I’ll be taking over the socials this month to share a little about the history, culture and skillset that makes the Götheborg what it is. Sailing on this ship and helping maintain her has been a dream come true for me since 2022 and I am so excited to share a little of life behind the scenes on this beautiful ship 💙💛 #gotheborgofsweden #gothenburg #tallship #sailing #sailor #sweden #europe #ships
