Now Booking Caribbean Sailing and other quality companies |
North South History and Background North South has been in business in the British Virgin Islands since 1974. Starting with only two boats, North South has maintained a rental fleet of approximately 30 boats for the past 35 years. During the few years that the numbers got above 40 boats, we found that we lost the personal touch with our clients. This size of fleet seems to fit us the best. In January of 2009, North South passed the torch to long time employee Chandi Singh who started a company called Caribbean Sailing BVI. North South recommended and facilitated the transfer of all the North South boats to the care of Caribbean Sailing and has remained as an advisor and marketing agent for CS BVI. Along with many other brokers, the North South Canadian office can book your vacation with Caribbean Sailing. Over the past 35 years, North South has introduced literally tens of thousands of people to sailing in the beautiful BVI. North South has held a steady course through the ups and downs of the industry and the economy. We have weathered the fly by night operators who disappeared in the night and the concentration of the big operators that provide flashy but impersonal boats and services. Brian continues to act as a consultant to the new company but has little to do with the day to day running of the new BVI business. North South's role will be strictly dealing directly with the customers while helping to generally market the boats.
Chandi intends to combining "competitive price leadership", "seamless service" and "spotless yachts" and to continue to built a growing clientele of satisfied customers. He is very proud of the fact that more than 85% of the customers are either repeats or referrals from current customers. The balance of the business comes from very limited advertising. In a world where there is normally someone new to meet each time you return, Chandi is proud of his consistent management and direction. Sometimes Chandi thinks our motto should be "no surprises", instead, he continues to use: |
