The BVI Spring Regatta started off in high gear and Team BVI was on the top of their game. The first race was from Nanny Cay to the Bitter End and commenced at 10: 15 am on March 31, 2009. The teams were allotted 6 hours to complete the course of which team BVI only need 3 hours and 20 minutes to dominate the race. The course took the team from Nanny Cay, heading east on the Sir Francis Drake channel and then south between Salt and Peter Island, leaving Salt and Cooper Island to port of the vessel. The course then took us back into the Sir Francis Drake channel and outside The Dogs; from here the team needed only 3 tacks to make it to the finish line. Victory was in plain view and the Bitter End trophy was later awarded to the team for first place.

Day 1 Manuel Reef Tortola – the Bight, Norman Island

The journey through the Virgin Islands began today with my two crew members Debbie and Daniel, from Manuel Reef on Tortola, British Virgin Islands on a 38 feet catamaran. Once outside the channel we hoisted the sails and headed for Norman Islands, also known as Treasure Island. The winds were blowing from the east at 15 knots and the seas were moderate, this made for a lovely sail across the Sir Francis Drake Channel. The sail ended at the Bight in Norman Island where calm, soothing turquoise waters enveloped by a powdery white sand beach caressed our bodies. As we plunged into the blue, all our cares that were already being lifted from sailing suddenly disappeared. We sat and watched the sun set then disappeared over St. John and a perfect day has come to an end.

Overlooking still waters from the Beach on Norman Island.

It is my pleasure to take you on a tour through this archipelago of forty emerald islands where you will experience northeasterly trade winds throughout the winter months through early summer. The winds will shift south southwesterly as you go through the summer. With winds blowing from the northeast, leaving Road Town on Tortola, a sail to Norman Island will not require you to tack and the estimated time of arrival is 45 minutes to 1 hour, a distance of 7 nautical miles.
