NO PROBLEM" is a 65' Irwin, designed for cruising and comfort of the charter guests in mind. She offers open layout plans with plenty of room in the private cabins, each with it's own bathroom and shower. Her expansive deck allows you room to roam, find your own space, read a book or do nothing. She also offers her guests with a choice of sunshine or shade. Whatever you may desire, you will find.

"NO PROBLEM" has been used on several occasions as "THE" boat for many photo shoots by photographers as the stage for photographing models for catalogues with the beautiful Caribbean as the backdrop. "NO PROBLEM" has also been featured on an International Travel Show.

"NO PROBLEM" ACCOMMODATIONS

"NO PROBLEM" has four double staterooms, each with its own shower and toilet. There are also hanging lockers (closets) and drawers for storage in each of the rooms. Space is at a premium on all sailing vessels so we recommend you bring soft-sided luggage such as duffel or backpack. The vessel is fully air-conditioned and offers 110v power outlets in each room.

Our saloon area is large with what is commonly referred to as a sail table which when opened seats eight adults comfortably. In the saloon we have a television with a VCR and DVD player. We also have a CD player and more than 300 musical selections to chose from. If you do have a favorite movie, DVD or CD we encourage you to bring it along and share it with your group.

One of the unique features of an Irwin 65 is her cockpit and deck space. You will be pleased with all the room there is to move around the vessel. She was built with chartering in mind so she’s very roomy and comfortable.

ACTIVITIES

Parasailing
We can arrange to rendezvous with a local parasailing company for this once in a lifetime experience. Soar 600 ft. above the channel for a first class view of the Islands. The per person fee is the same whether one person or the whole group decides to be adventurous.

Snorkeling
At every anchorage you will have the opportunity to discover the colorful world under water. Snorkeling is easy to master and provides you with a perspective of the world you may have never experienced before. We carry a variety of equipment in varying sizes for our guests. For thoose who wear prescription glasses we highly recommend you check into a snorkeling mask which incorporates your prescription. We suggest you contact your local dive shop for more information.

Scuba Diving
While we don’t offer diving off our vessel, we would be happy to arrange a rendezvous dive with one of the many local companies.

Water Skiing
We have a 15’ Caribe dinghy equipped with a 50-hp Yamaha outboard motor. It doesn’t matter if you are an expert or novice, there are a couple of beautiful anchorages in which to try your hand at water-skiing.

Games
We have several board games available including Trivial Pursuit, Monopoly, Battleship, Scrabble, and Backgammon.

Sight Seeing
There is nothing that compares to sailing the British Virgin Islands but the Islands themselves are not to be missed. We can arrange for a sight seeing tours around the Islands, which offer spectacular views and a look back into the history of the islands.

Hiking
The terrain of most of the Islands are mountainous which provide for excellent exploration.

Fishing
We do have fishing equipment on board for the more leisurely. There are several companies who do offer deep sea fishing excursions, which we would be happy to arrange for you.

Windsurfing
While we do not carry a windsurfer on board we can arrange for you to rent one that is suited to your particular level of proficiency. We do have to know in advance of the trip if you would like us to arrange to have one on board.

Kayaking
A two person ocean kayak is on board and available to those who want to explore the shoreline without getting wet.

ITINERARY

We do not follow a set itinerary from week to week, rather we discuss with our guests what they would prefer to do and tailor the cruise as much as possible to meet your desires. There are certain areas we strongly suggest our guests don’t miss. North Sound in Virgin Gorda is one of the most beautiful and comfortable anchorages in the BVI.

MENU

We do what we can to cater the weeks’ menu to your preferences and dietary requirements. Our sample menu will give you an idea of what each days culinary offers.

STANDARD BAR

We maintain a standard bar but we are flexible when it comes to a guests' preference. We ask that you let us know what your favorite brands are and we will do what we can to have them on board. Even though we are in the islands, we can generally accommodate most requests. We do serve wine with dinner and our house wines are available at any time during the day. If you would like us to purchase specific brand names we would be happy to do so and apply the charges to your credit card. Any amount not consumed is not refundable.

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR TRIP

Packing – keep it as light as possible. The islands are very casual and unless you are interested in going ashore for an evening of fine dining you will not need to get dressed up. We find that you don’t need more than a bathing suit, a couple of tee shirts and pairs of shorts.

Shoes – shoes are not worn on board the vessel. You don’t need more that a pair of sandals unless you want to do some hiking. Some of the beaches do have coral pebbles so we also suggest you bring a pair of swim shoes.
