As with all things a starting point needs to be chosen. Charter Advisors will begin by reviewing the most popular areas and charter companies for U.S. Sailors. We're talking about the Caribbean. Specifically the British Virgin Islands and the U.S. Virgin islands.

The first charter company reviews will cover three types of charter companies. Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3.

These tiers do not speak to quality or cost. Rather, they represent the size of the operation and perception.

Examples:
Tier 1 Charter Company Example: Moorings, Horizon Yacht Charters, Sun Sail, etc.
Tier 2 Charter Company Example: BVI Yacht Charters, Voyager, Barecat, etc.
Tier 3 Charter Company Example: Conch Charters, Bareboats BVI, etc.
