I and my family will be sailing the BVI's Oct 6-13 I know what is open on Virgin Gorda (Having been there last week) but wondering about anegada and Willie T, Norman island, Jost Van Dyke Are they open this time of year? Also has the channel at Anegada changed from the GPS maps? The yacht draws 8 ft so need to be careful. Is the channel marked? I will drop a hook near the government dock Lots of water there.
Any other information would be helpful. Yacht has bow thrusters, full A/C and a watermaker so I should be fairly independent. Also will have 10 scuba tanks onboard. Where can they be filled? I know about Dive BVI on VG but where else?
Where is the boat that was sunk near VG by Branson? Also want to dive the refrigerated boat? Any coordinates? Where can I find information on dive sites?
Thanks for your help

Anegada Beach Club
Anegada Reef
Big Bamboo
Neptunes for breakfast/lunch
The Wonky Dog
Markers still amiss but safe where you intend to anchor
DO NOT DIVE the Cracken it is very dangerous due to Irma, rebar sticking out everywhere, report comes from a professional salvage diver.

Here is our video our our recent trip. You can see some of the rebar around 1 minute. https://youtu.be/sXG7oe29fB0I agree that it is dangerous.
