Wish I could, but with a name like Traveldukes - I would have guessed JMU
Not VPI....... ooops I should say VA Tech
😀

We like JMU too, but are hokie fans through and through who happen to have that name.:-)

The Va Tech connection alone give you credibility with me! You have friends on STT!!! Unfortunately peasants like myself need to keep their nose to the grindstone . . . have a wonderful day trip!

traveldukes,

my wife is a JMU/UVA graduate - I am a MD fan school of hard knocks in USCG

your first trip to the vi?

if bad kitty does not work out - recommend nauti nymph
ask for Capt Calvin
book the boat and you can find some one at Woody's or Molly's that will join in.

My son lived in the VI and did the day sail mate routine
Calvin and him are very good friends
We used him last trip in Feb - Great Fun - Great Capt

Son now lives in Alaska - that is our trip for the summer
Blue water - just a little colder

We've been to USVI before om a cruise stop and feel in love with St. John and have wanted to go back ever since. The nauti nymph also looked cool, so I will keep your suggestion in mind.... and we surely will make an appearance at Woody's shortly after we arrive. Since you have a "link" to the boating world - My husband and I are VERY interested in doing a Moorings charter out of Tortola two years from now. We have wanted to do that for a number of years now and are excited about nailing down some plans. Are you familiar with them at all?

So you married a wahoo..... oh geez. 😉 Just please tell me that you haven't been to a ballgame and had to stand to sing the good ole song. I'd have to take all your boating advice with a grain of salt then. Just kidding - I love all the info I can get.

Take care,
traveldukes

Sent you a PM

Hey traveldukes,

My partner and I will be arriving to St. John on the 7th of August. We were also thinking of booking Bad Kitty, haven't yet. If it doesn't work out for you on Wednesday maybe we can join in on another day. let me know!

Jen

eeeeexcellent *evil finger tenting*

just so happens two more Hokies will be lounging around STJ that day...was hoping to hook up for a daysail with someone that week!
we're on STJ from July 29 to Aug 8.
will contact the kitty people and keep an eye on this forum until July 29.

holly

you know we may want to notify the local authorites that there will be an inordinate amount Hokies on island that week

How to identify a hokie:
They wear colors that do not match, always have VT on some part of clothing, they make lots of noise, and constantly talk about football... 😛

Warning to other vistors - better get to Woodys early for seat - Hokies love cheap alcohol 😉

If they start doing the Hokie Cheer - 😮 It means you should have a called the police 15 minutes ago...

:@)

FEAR THE TURTLE!

The hokies are coming oh my... the hokies are coming oh my.....

You all are totaling cracking me up! Yes, these Hokies will be at Woody's for happy hour... and anytime my husband gets around people who notice his VT stuff, football is the hot topic, and depending the amount of alcohol dserved - we will probably start doing the hokie cheer.... just HOW did you know? But, I simply do not get the part about non-matching clothes... maroon and orange were made to go together. Afterall, isn't that what colors God chose to decorate with in the fall?

All kidding aside, Fleeper - we'd love to have you join us on the 6th. And what's *evil finger tenting?* And Jennifer, if our trip somehow gets pushed back, then we can probably meet up on the kitty. Just email Sheree at calypsovi.com to set up what day you can go. She's been very nice.

Traveldukes

sorry to confuse you...evil finger tenting? Think Mr. Burns from the Simpsons... though you may not be a fan....
I did send a note to calypsovi, they have our info

We (fun couple) will be in St. John from August 2-9 and am looking to set up a BVI trip on one or more days that week. Bad Kitty looks like a great option -- does it require setting up a group in advance? Anyone on this forum still looking for another couple?

Hey Poncho!

So you are headed down to paradise one week from today. I'm jealous! We'd love to have you join us. Email Sheree at calypsovi.com and tell her you want to go on the Bad Kitty on August 6th. They need a minimum of 8 to go, and if you all join us and Fleeper, I believe that will give us 6... so I think we are good with a week and a half left to go. Everything I've read about this trip has me really excited for a great day!

Looking forward to it.
