Hello TTOLERS
We are headed down to the BVI on Tuesday... for our 4th sailing adventure. A couple of questions...We are bringing the TTOL Loved Polar Bear Cooler...Full of Whole Foods Meat. What happens at Customs when we arrive bt Ferry from STT? Do we need to declare? How are the swells?
We are planning to head to Cooper on Thursday morning with a stop at the Rhone. Thanks for any input!

Many use the website wind guru because it includes swell forecasts several days out.

Based on the forecast I would stay in the SFD channel or North sound the first 3 days. Overall however looks like great sailing weather. If you want to visit the baths I would cab over with the predicted swell. The balls won't be safe.

Duty is 10% of the value of the contents of the cooler. They don't ask for proof just your best guess. We paid $10 cash last November.
