I would be the main contact person for the trip. We had one person book for two boats(16 people). That way if there was a problem I could dispute the full charge with my credit card company. I should have demanded a resolution on site instead of trying to keep the peace for the sake of the whole party. I would get references on each crewmember onboard. We blindly accepted the catamaran company hiring qualified help to staff the boat which failed us miserably. We have since had friends charter different companies and looked at their food service photos with great envy. It looked five star and they paid half what we did. I would still pack my own meats.. I do not regret that decision at all! We will charter to the BVI again(probably next year) and I assure you it will be a flawless trip.
