That kind of East wind with a good N swell is not fun.

Maho Bay (St John) mooring field has been wonderfully calm yesterday and today. Incredible Full Moon Party at Maho Crossroads last night.

If you can get here, pretty nice anchorage in Anegada. Only 6 boats last night.

I've chartered in BVI several times, not recently though, but will be there in February. Would appreciate any information of typical sailing weather mid FEB.

Mid Feb is usually fine but there is always a chance for Xmas winds or a North Swell. Temperatures are near perfect. You can leave the AC off at night and don’t tend to get the intermittent rain showers all night that happen in the summer months.
