PROVISIONING FOR YOUR BAREBOAT CHARTER
Vacation is a time for rest and relaxation, so why not let someone else do the work for you when it comes to shopping for your week on charter. St Thomas has many wonderful options for pre-provisioning your boat and usually for less than the cab fare to the grocery store if you choose to shop for yourself. There's no reason not to take advantage of the convenient services available to you that will make the start of your vacation easy and stress free.
Just remember when you are shopping for a bareboat charter that your yacht will be essentially that . . . bare. You will need to purchase paper products, cleaning supplies, food, beverages, condiments and seasonings, etc. That's why using
a reputable provisioning service can prove to be very helpful, because they may think of things you could easily overlook.
You can find additional information about provisioning in the FAQ's section of this website.
Please note: Someone in your crew MUST be onboard to accept and sign-off on delivery of your provisions. No early deliveries will be accepted.
