On Saturday January 11th, 2025 just shortly after 12:25pm we encountered some technical difficulties, nearly resulting in an unintended incident. Fortunately, not as noted on a specific website, it did not occur.
I want to clarify in detail that there were only four passengers on board, not seven as was incorrectly reported. This misinformation has caused unnecessary concern, and I want to assure everyone that all four passengers are safe and in good health. The confusion may have arisen from initial reports, but I can confirm that no additional passengers were on the vessel.
Our registered vessel is secure at B&B Yacht Service, currently undergoing minor maintenance. It will be back on the water before my 42nd birthday on January 28th. As of today, January 12th, all our current bookings for January 2025 remain unaffected and are not canceled.
I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to Beyond The Reef, who I contacted to ensure we did not sink and placed our vessel on dry dock not long after. The Beyond the reef team performed exceptionally well and deserves full support for their environmental initiatives. Special thanks also to the GM and boat captain of Necker for ensuring everyone’s safety.
“Entrepreneurship is about embracing challenges as opportunities, turning obstacles into stepping stones, and finding the courage to forge ahead when the path seems uncertain. Success is not the absence of struggle but the triumph over it.” Each entrepreneur has their own unique story; our stories are similar, not identical.
Gumption's Experience BVI is open for business with zero cancellations.
Respectfully,
