Ahoy Captains, VISAR has confirmed that the Nautical Area within the Waters of the BVI between West End and Nanny Cay are now Open. Please see the 'VISAR Chatter' on WhatsApp. Ahoy Capt Cook, with respect, sounds like you need a friend. ASPCA in the USA and the Humane Society of the BVI are always looking for Volunteers, walking lonely dogs or fostering a kitten. Maybe meet the Best Friend you'll every have. https://www.aspca.org/http://www.bvihumanesociety.org/Fair Wind, Brent from The Captains Compass

It might be wise to wait for an official announcement that the exclusion zone has been rescinded, I wouldn't want to use a post on WhatsApp as my only defense when C&I comes alongside and tells me that they intend to impound my boat. Best to continue calling in prior to transiting and getting the good news directly from customs. I've checked the BVI govt. pages for anything official and haven't found a hint.

you go. The exclusion zone is defined in the curfew order that renews every 2 weeks. The order that was Gazetted on 11 March redefined the zone to be around Little and Great Thatch islands and specifically calls out the a new corridor to allow transit from Nanny Cay to JVD.

Ahoy Captains,
Thank you Capt. Helmbrecht.
Sorry, as the Source is from the BVI Gov Gazette, and required a Subscription and User/Pass, I did not know if I had the Legal Right to Reprint or Cut/Paste to this forum. The best I could find was a Screen Shot of the latest 'Curfew Order No. 5' provided by VISAR.
