Welcome to the November issue of Yacht Guide

This is the last editor's notes from the separate titles BVI Yacht Guide and BVI Property Guide as they morph into BVI Property & Yacht for our December-January double issue. I am looking forward to a new magazine where the conflicts and constrictions of artificial boundaries dissolve to present a broader perspective on all things island and sea.

Yacht Guide has had its share of unique adventures. Starting as its own magazine in 2003, it soon joined BVI Property Guide as they became synergized into one back-to-back, doublecover magazine. In its journey, it has covered hurricanes, modern-day shipwrecks, racing, cruising, diving and watersports.

The benefit of a monthly magazine is that we can get involved in the story and take time and photos to reach out to the reader via words and design. We have worked with some of the most talented people in the business near and far. Exclusive shots from the likes of Armando Jenik, Rhoderick Grimes-Graeme and Yacht Shots BVI have graced our covers. Our stories have taught us about Geoff Holt’s Atlantic crossing and Armando’s revolutionary catch and release story as well as local coverage of champions in the making such as sailor Alec Anderson and BVI events such as Spring Regatta, HIHO and Kite Jam. We also rely on some of the industry’s local experts to bring you the most up-to-date trends in the BVI. We are furthermore grateful and proud to have some of the best in the industry advertise with us. And the good news for you? All of the above and more will continue. So it is not the end of an era, but rather the beginning of a new one, BVI Property & Yacht. Enjoy this issue and we will see you inside the next.



As always, see you on the water.

Owen Waters.
