SAIL AWAY TO THE BVI As the Minister for Tourism, it is my pleasure to welcome all charter yacht brokers, yacht owners, and crews to our beautiful British Virgin Islands. We are pleased that you have chosen to partake in the annual Charter Yacht Society Boat Show activities. These types of yachting events highlight the strengths of the BVI as a prime tourism destination, both for sailing regattas, pleasure boating and marine excursions. The BVI Boat Show, along with Charter Yacht Society of the BVI, continue to showcase how charter yachting and tourism positively affects and benefits many industries in the Territory. This annual event also creates potential business opportunities within our economy. This year marks a significant milestone as the Charter Yacht Society celebrates the 35th anniversary of the BVI Boat Show that has now become an eagerly anticipated event for the people of the Virgin Islands and our friends in the international boating community. We congratulate you on this remarkable milestone. The Territory is part of a global market where there is constant competition to be the destination of choice. Events such as this annual Boat Show help to distinguish our Territory from the competition, and therefore have my Government’s full support. We are working assiduously to strengthen the yachting industry to further raise the bar of our overall tourism product and services, and this is yet another opportunity to shine the tourism spotlight on all that we have to offer. To all of our visitors, whether you are new or returning to our beautiful shores, there is always time for what I describe as an amazing combination of pleasurable activities and unforgettable sightseeing adventures which will rejuvenate your body, mind and soul. The team from the BVI Tourist Board is available to assist you with more information on our destination, or visit them at their website www.bvitouristboard.com. On behalf of the Government and people of the Territory, I am profoundly grateful for the role you continue to play in developing our vital tourism sector as we promote the spirit of ‘One BVI’. Do have an enjoyable visit with us and we look forward to seeing you again next time! Dr. D. Orlando Smith, OBE Premier of the Virgin Islands

WHERE ARE THEY NOW? Charter crews are accustomed to being asked , “When are you going to return to main stream living”? Over the past 3 1/2 decades the CYS has had the pleasure of meeting some very unique individuals. Thanks to today’s technology, we have had the good fortune of being able to follow some of them as they integrated back into the “real world” Geoff & Iza Prower. Yacht: Dreaming On Encouraged by former crews to set sail and charter in Belize, Geoff & Iza embraced the adventure. Whilst they didn’t exactly leave the charter industry they do have one foot on land. They are now owners of their own island - Funk Caye. facebook.com/DreamingOnYachtCharters Sasha and Tara Bouis. Yacht: Soterion Parents of an almost one year old. Proud owners of Pizza Pi VI, the #1 floating food truck in the USVI and, landlords of a vacation condo rental.

“SHARE OUR WORLD” AWARD
It is easy to “drift away” from reality when your livelihood is based on, in and under the sea. Occassionally, we hear about a bridge being built between the land and marine communities. A yacht is used for a Make-a-Wish recipient, a school class is invited on a day sail, relief supplies are delivered to a remote island. For a moment in time, two worlds come together. In 2017, Addison Yacht Charters will present the first annual award at the CYS Show to the crew who have gone the extra mile to “share our world” in the previous twelve months. You can either put someone else’s name forward or submit your own along with a paragraph detailing the interaction. Submission deadline September 1, 2017 to the CYS office at info@ bvicrewedyachts.com. Nominees must be CYS members. 12 CHARTER YACHT SOCIETY 2016
