The Mooring chart indeed shows the passage to be off limits due to
shallow reefs. There should also be a small island just to the west and
at the south end of Camanoe. You can transit between this island and
Camanoe to let you get on your way. It's narrow but has good depth.
We've actually gone through the area that's restricted and it's easily
doable under motor and with someone at the bow.
Cheers,
Mike

Subject: [world-cruising] BVI Beef Island/Camanoe Pass Question
This groups was so incredibly helpful to me recently when I had charting
questions, I figure I'll through this one out. Once again, it's probably
silly
stuff for many of your seasoned cruisers. But I'm loving this stuff and
learning more every day. Thanks in advance for your patience.
I'm working on my plan for my upcoming BVI charter. Planning to spend a
night at Marina Cay, then on to Jost van Dyke.
I've ready about going through the Beef Island pass. But we're
chartering
with The Moorings, whose planning chart has the whole thing marked
off-limits.
Has anyone had experience with this situation? Am I to sail north around
the
top of Great Camanoe, and back down? Is the pass that dangerous?
Navigable
under motor?
Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again!
