DOES ANY ONE HAVE ANY CHARTS WITH SITES ON IN THE VIRGIN ISLANDS?

[Grenadaresearch]

Does anyone have any sites on in the Virgin Islands both USVI and BVI - Cornelius sent a nice map but alas its too blurry to establish any names outside of San Juan and then there are fifty islands around there. I would be interested in anything that looks like fun.
Thanks
James

I have a new (2004) chart kit for the BVI. Over the last 20 years I have done probably 500 dives in the BVI None around Jost Van Dyke, and none
near Anageda. The only dive I have done near Virgin Gorda, is the Chikuzen wreck, about 10 miles offshore. As far as Tortola, Cooper, Ginger, Salt, Peter,
and Norman Islands I have done them alll. My chart is a navagational chart and does not give dive locations. If you tell me what site you are interested in
I am sure I can get you the Lats and Longs.

Hi Chris - thanks for the info - Im looking for sites on wrecks preferable from or around Jost Van Duke and Western End Tortola then the USA Virgin Islands. I am aware that no wrecks are of value on Anegada as theyn were coming from the old world to the new to collect so had supplies and slaves etc, no coinage as such. If you thi nk you have some sites it would be great.

Hi James,
I am sorry, I know of no wrecks near the western part of Tortola that might contain coinage.
Once in the mid 80s I dove the HMS Rhone a day after a tropical storm had passed the area. Everything was stirred up and I found an intact tea saucer, with the name of the ship on it. I was tempted to keep it, but I buried it in the sand.

The Rhone is a national park - good move, sadly some scuba doo probably nicked it. Anyway wish there was a museum around here!
Thanks

Do you live in The BVI? I am looking for old maps of The territory too.

See Sean Loughman at the Pirate's Chest in St. Thomas. He's been there 25 years. He might be able to help you.

And if you are looking for some information on St. Croix, find Miles Sperber. Two brothers run Miles Mark Charters and knows the waters and the locals. Avoid Mark Sperber. The man is not kind. Miles is the exact opposite. Jovial and willing to share. I used to work for the 2 back in the 90's and Miles used to take the crew out on Sundays for some out of the way exploring.
