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/

HELEN is the first in a remarkable triptych of late 1930s 3rd International Rule 8-Metres drawn by experienced designer to the Rule and Olympic gold medal winning helmsman Sir Thomas Glen-Coats; built on the Clyde in consecutive years at the Mylne family’s Bute Slip Dock Co. yard, where Glen-Coats was a director and major backer. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/765/HELEN They were among the last full keel 8mRs built in Britain and represent the pinnacle of truly classic 8-Metre design. At the end of her initial class-racing days, conversion by her original builder to an able, and of course fast, cruiser-racer kept HELEN very much alive, so that when the 8-Metre Class revival began in the early 2000s, she was a natural subject for restoration and application of the subtle authenticity and performance treatments allowed under the Sira Cup World Championship Rules for boats built before 1960. HELEN is very well equipped and optimised to be competitive at the next major 8mR championship and simply to be enjoyed as a supremely elegant and fleet of foot day/ weekend racer-cruiser.
