72 Hours to wheels up on first BVI charter and I've got a few random transport questions.


Taxis:
Finally heard back from Kevin (yay) so we're all set for STT to ferry transport. What's standard fare + gratuity pp? Regarding taxi service on other islands, are there other "Kevins" or taxi operators we should call, particularly on Tortola, and Virgin Gorda? Is there a website listing island taxi operators?


Ferrys:
It seems like the consensus is that all ferries are created equal and just catch the first one available and purchase one way not round trip. Is that about right? Is Road Town preferable to West End as a destination?


Water Taxis:
Our flight gets into STT around 2:00p so I think we've got a good chance of catching the ferry, the last one if necessary. But if we don't I guess we're stuck with a Water Taxi versus spending the night because we're staying at Moorings village and can't really cancel this late if our flight gets delayed. Are dolphin and dohms the only operators? Is one better than the other? Given it's just my wife and myself, any way to save a few bucks?


Rental Cars:
I think we're going to rent a car on VG, and "Nick" seems to be the guy to call at Leverick. Anyone have a number or name of his Rental Car company?


Finally I'd like to reserve 82 degree weather, warm blue water, 12 knots of breeze and beautiful sunsets.. anyone help with that? :-) TIA

If you get stuck in st thomas, I expect Kevin will have some ideas.

nick does not own a rental car company. he runs the marina at leverick bay. He can help you make arrangements with http://www.landsjeeprental.com.

LOL, I guess you could say Nick "runs the Marina"!

Sort of like "President Obama runs the White House".
