Yacht Services & Facilities in Trinidad & Tobago

The availability of a variety of yacht services on Trinidad is largely a result of its location south of the path of summer hurricanes.  It used to be that many Caribbean cruisers sailed their boats south to be laid-up ashore in one of the boatyards there as a result of a clause in their insurance policies making it wise to do so.

Recently, a change in our insurers attitude to risk allows us to lay our boats up throughout the summer throughout the Eastern Caribbean providing certain measures are taken, so fewer of us are compelled to make the annual trip south to this hot and humid island purely on the basis of insurance requirements.

However the yacht services and facilities in Trinidad still match those of anywhere in the Eastern Caribbean, and their prices are extremely competitive. As a result, Trinidad can offer the cruising yachtsman a great deal...
