Actually the moorings do not require a captain's license or sailing certificate to rent one of their boats for private use in the BVIs. I have personally been on 2 trips to the BVIs on private trips that did not have a captain or need a captain to rent the boat.
A paying charter would be different, and I am sure Real would have to work something out with the charter company. But knowing that Real knowingly and willingly ignores the captain's license requirement in Hatteras, I would not be surprised to hear that they were not in compliance with maritime law in the Caribbean.
