Zeke – Charter provisioning is so much fun. Exploring what is in the grocery store is a great way to get to know the places where you are chartering. That said, some venues (think BVI) I love to just pay the fee to have the charter company have the groceries loaded on the boat. You still get to make all the choices; but you can arrive and head out without the challenge of hitting the store. I have lots of funny stories of trying to get 10 days worth of food back to the boat across some less than paved roads in some far flung places… sometimes its worth the fee!
