    Hi Judy,
     
    Can you give me a contact and location for your marina? I'll be traveling through that area this winter and I'm looking for a place to store my Hartley 39' for about 4 months while I return to work. My draft is 6.5'. Would that be a problem?
     
    Thank you,
     
    Mike Pereira

    Salt water because it is an island.

    In BVI, rates vary $1 to $1.50 per ft per month, additional charges for
    electricity and water. Our boat is docked at a marina in Sopers Hole on
    Tortola; unoccupied 95% of the year. Slip fee is only fifty cents per ft
    per month, with no charges for electricity or water for those few weeks
    someone is aboard. But when we finally move aboard full-time next May 1,
    then the rate will increase to $1.50 including electricity at that
    particular marina. It does not have separate meters for each slip to
    monitor actual electric usage.

    The fifty cent rate also includes having a caretaker start the engine
    minimum every 2 weeks and letting it run for a few hours, as well as
    plugging in shore power every third day for a 24-hr period to keep the
    batteries charged; and just looking out there every day to make sure the
    boat is still where she is supposed to be.
