TMM BVI, Road Reef Marina.  The docks looking very empty this month, which is just the way we like it.  Many thanks to all of our charterers for helping make this happen so often!

NO NEWS IS SOMETIMES GOOD NEWS!

You are no doubt wondering why you haven't heard from TMM in a while! Well......we've been very busy taking care of our charter guests, maintaining our beautiful yachts, hiring additional staff, and implementing new procedures to continually improve our customer service to our guests. Additionally, our yacht salesman, Don Pietrykowski, has been busy selling LOTS OF NEW YACHTS into the BVI fleet, ranging in size from 36 - 52 feet!   We are very excited to have so many new yacht owners joining TMM, as well as some repeat owners purchasing their second yacht to put into our fleet. Congratulations to the owners of these beautiful yachts and welcome to "Team TMM!"

PLEASE CHECK OUT ALL OF THE NEW TMM YACHTS:

RYA YACHTMASTER & ASA INSTRUCTOR NOW ON BOARD AT TMM BVI

We are very pleased to welcome Travis Wepner as our new full-time RYA Yachtmaster and ASA Sailing Instructor.   He joined us in January just in time to avoid the blustery weather of his home State of Wisconsin.   Travis received his RYA Instructor training in England and completed his one remaining ASA instructor course here in the BVI.  He is certified to instruct ASA 101 (Keelboat Sailing), 103 (Basic Coastal Cruising), 104 (Bareboat Cruising) and 114 (Cruising Catamaran.)  He is also certified in First Aid, Personal Survival Techniques, Diesel Engine Maintenance, is a Swiftwater Rescue Technician, and has his PADI Open Water Diver Certification.  Additionally, Travis has also completed the STCW 95, has a private pilot's license, and he holds a Bachelor of Science in Human Biology from the University of Wisconsin, Green Bay (GO PACKERS!) He has accomplished a great deal and we feel very fortunate to have a young man with so many skills join the TMM team!  If you are looking to improve your sailing skills, take one of our  ASA Certification Courses  or just want to completely relax and let Travis show you an amazing time in the BVI, let us know and we'll "book you up." Don't dally as Travis is rapidly proving to be very popular with our guests!
