Any suggestions on where to get a good price on a new dinghy and outboard in STT? Is it worth buying in STT over Tortola? Would it be better to sail over to Fajardo in PR to pick one up from a chandlery there?
Thanks!
Rob

BVI Budget Marine is more expensive then STT Budget Marine. We have sailed to Fajardo's West Marine several times for parts. You can buy online at U.S prices and pick up in Fajardo.

We recently bought a couple from Golden Hind Chandlery in Tortola. I would buy a new Yamaha 2 stroke in Tortola as well.

There's a very reputable place in San Juan called Liferafts of PR and they handle Avons and Zodiacs http://www.liferafts-inc.com/Tel 787-723-3237 Ask for Jonathan or Mathew it's all in English so it's easy. They'll also send it via Tropical to STT if you wish.

Thanks for the quick reply,
I was never a fan of the Enduro's due to the fact they used excess parts of their older technologies. But they're still better and lighter then the new 4 strokes
