When are you going?
I may head down mid March. An old friend has use of a Dynamic 62 sailboat
and wants to show it off.

Hello sailors,
We're going back the BVI (via the Moorings) after a 10 year hiatus (kids
are
old enough now!) and have a question of recent cruisers. In the past I
would bag and freeze meats and pack them in dry ice and bring them along -
to defray provisioning costs and insure have decent quality meat on hand.

Well in reading the charter company package I find that there is in place
a
regulation requiring an Import License to bring in meat, (etc.?). The
License costs $25 - not much in the big picture but I wonder ifn this is
indeed a new requirement, and to what degree it is enforced.

I'll be clearing customs at the Tortola Airport.

Has anyone got any recent experience or advice?

Many TIA

Martin

PS If you had any other advice or recomended publications on any changes
that have transpired in the past decade, or port advice I'd be MUCH
obliged.
