You will be warmly welcomed aboard Tropical Squeeze at Fort Burt Marina on the main island of Tortola, in the southwest corner of Road Harbour. The charter base is a 5-minute taxi ride from the Road Town ferry dock, 30 minutes from the West End ferry dock and 40 minutes from the Beef Island airport (EIS). There is a nearby grocery store in Road Reef Plaza and several restaurants within walking distance.

What is a Sleep Aboard Night? Do you recommend including a Sleep Aboard?
We recommend adding a Sleep Aboard night, available with a minimum 7-night charter to follow. The Sleep Aboard option will allow you to arrive at the charter base and board Tropical Squeeze at 5PM the afternoon before the official start of your term charter. Your provisions can be delivered and stored before your arrival. Given when flights arrive from the mainland, this is a terrific option as you will only need to transfer yourself and belongings once – no need for a hotel for that first night. In addition, you will have the opportunity to unpack, settle in and take care of any final provisioning you might want to do. Finally, the extra time onboard will give you the opportunity to familiarize yourself with Tropical Squeeze and her systems and you should be able to leave the dock by mid-morning on your first day. The fee for the Sleep Aboard night is 1/2 of the nightly rate (divide weekly rate by 7, divide by 2).
How Many nights should I charter Tropical Squeeze?
Many guests charter for 7-nights starting with a Sleep Aboard the night before when they arrive from the mainland. Because there are so many wonderful islands and anchorages to visit in the BVI, 7 nights really isn’t enough time – you don’t want to be in a rush! We recommend booking charters of at least 10 nights with a flexible itinerary so you can spend an extra night in a favorite anchorage.
What is the best way to get to the British Virgin Islands?
You may fly to Tortola, BVI (Beef Island, “EIS”) from San Juan, Puerto Rico as well as the one flight a day from Miami. Or, you may opt to fly into St Thomas, USVI (“STT”), take a 10 minute taxi ride to connect to the public ferry to Road Town, Tortola. Upon arrival in Tortola, we will arrange for transportation to meet you at the Beef Island airport or at the Road Town ferry terminal. You may also opt to take a private water taxi from St. Thomas to the charter base.
What is a bareboat catamaran charter?
A bareboat catamaran charter is a private yacht for you and your guests. If qualified, you may sail the yacht yourself, or hire a captain to sail her for you. The bareboat rate does not include any additional crew (captain or chef).
