St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands. From dockside networking and crew-broker introductions to memorable island-style social events, the 2026 USVI Charter Yacht Show offers industry professionals a valuable platform to build relationships and grow business. Set for November 14-17, 2026, the exclusive boutique-style event hosted by the Virgin Islands Professional Charter Association (VIPCA) returns to IGY Yacht Haven Grande in St. Thomas, the only marina to earn the title of International Superyacht Marina of the Year four times. The show, celebrating its 10th year with a new Broker Experience Program, takes place in a destination that continues to gain global maritime recognition, including being named Caribbean Yachting Destination of the Year in Caribbean Journal’s 2025 Caribbean Travel Awards.

“We are looking forward to welcoming brokers, charter yacht crews, and marine industry partners to the 2026 USVI Charter Yacht Show and giving them the opportunity to experience firsthand all that the U.S. Virgin Islands has to offer their clients. This year, we are introducing a new Broker Experience Program designed to take brokers beyond the docks and onto the water, showcasing some of the unique attractions and experiences that make our destination so special. While chartering in the Virgin Islands has long been recognized as a world-class vacation experience, VIPCA remains committed to elevating the industry by promoting professionalism and encouraging the highest standards of service among crews and management companies. Our goal is to ensure that every broker leaves with a deeper understanding of the destination and complete confidence in recommending the exceptional charter experiences available throughout the Virgin Islands,” says Kennon Jones, VIPCA executive director.
