The island's main haul-out and long-term storage yard, inside the Schottegat harbour just past the Queen Juliana Bridge, popular for laying up through hurricane season.

Practical

Virgintino (2015): past the Queen Juliana Bridge to starboard, then starboard again into Baai van Versali; masts clear the bridge easily; full workforce, about 25 in-water slips, a Budget Marine shuttle, heavy-duty hydraulic trailer. One of three bonded areas where uncrewed yachts may be stored indefinitely (CPA). Call Port Authority on VHF 12 to transit St Anna Bay and the Queen Emma bridge. Website could not be loaded during research - contact the yard directly. Coordinate approx: estimated on the east shore of the Schottegat just inside the Juliana bridge from the guide's directions - verify.
