Before we bought our trawler we were sailors. We had the dream and goal to sail to the USVIs. We still have that goal/dream. We have been looking for stories and people who have done it in a trawler. They seem to be slim to none. I do know that Bruce Van Sant traded in his sailboat for a trawler and made his way south several times.
We have lived aboard Island Queen for a little over a year now and been making many upgrades and catching up on about 5 years of neglect. We plan on leaving the Keys in April of 2014. The boat should be ready by then (I hope). If not we go anyway. We are going to do the great loop first and then want to head south.
So, has anyone here gone from the US to the Virgins?
