WELCOME,
OFFICE OF THE PREMIER GOVERNMENT OF THE VIRGIN ISLANDS UK
TO THE 2014 BVI CYS BOAT SHOW
My Government welcomes yachting events such as the annual Charter Yacht Society Boat show which highlights 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, continues 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 the Virgin Islands’ economy. Over the years this boat show has become a fixture on the Territory’s calendar and continues to attract more and more industry leaders and enthusiasts to the British Virgin Islands. I salute the organisers and express my deepest gratitude for the role you continue to play in developing our vital tourism sector. The BVI is part of a global market where many places constantly compete to be the visitor destination of choice. Events such as this annual Boat Show help to distinguish our Territory from the competition, and it is therefore has 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 this is yet another opportunity to shine the tourism spotlight on the pristine beauty of Nature’s Paradise – our beautiful Virgin Islands. As Tourism Minister, I offer warm greetings to all charter yacht brokers, yacht owners and crews in the 2014 show. If this is your first visit, get acquainted with our people, foods, sceneries and entertainment. The BVI Tourist Board team is ready to assist you with more information on our destination, or visit them at their website www.bvitouristboard.com. On behalf of my Government and the people of this Territory, I welcome all of you and wish you a successful show.
Dr. D. Orlando Smith OBE Premier and Minister for Tourism

A popular song from the “Sound of Music” was the hit tune “Climb Ev’ry Mountain.”
motor. This equipment reduces glass to small smooth pebble like consistency (think “sea-glass”) for decorative use in counter tops and many other creative design uses.
There is one BVI resident who recently gave a sigh of relief for the opposite - making a mountain disappear – that is a mountain of glass. Julie Swartz of Green & Clean (VI) Ltd has been a tireless advocate for the environment and along with Green VI Eco-master planner, Charlotte McDevitt, has devised and fund raised ways to tackle one waste stream after another.
For the BVI Charter Yacht Society, whose members host guests from eco-conscious countries, this should be exciting news! Now when charter guests see their eco- crew separating glass (and soon plastic) for creative recycling efforts, they will be impressed and the sea and land are happy. Green & Clean is coming on board with educational and creative ways to inform the public about preserving the environment. Supporting these efforts are every boaters responsibility and a reason to celebrate. Who knows – you may drop anchor and soon have a “Green fairy” dancing on deck with you.
Based just off Handsome Bay in Virgin Gorda, Green & Clean has grown to be the largest collection area and on site recycling center for glass in the BVI. Over the last three years with her BVI partner Paola Flax, Swartz was able to raise funds to acquire an industrial glass imploder that crushes glass to the consistency of “silica sand.” So glass doesn’t literally disappear but is repurposed for many creative uses – including road pavement, building blocks and gardening mulch just to name a few. Julie who considers herself a “Tinker-Fairy” also made a tumbler out of an old gas tank utilizing a recycled boat
Bon Voyage!
