B+G's History

B+G was founded in 1988 by Bill and Georgia Schroer. Originally brought to the British Virgin Islands to run the Freedom Yacht Charter business, they branched out on their own to look after private clients’ yachts.

In 2013, after 20 years across multiple facets of the "boat" business, Todd Patterson purchased B+G and has since grown the company to provide an expanded range of products and services, including larger refit projects, in-house metal machining/fabrication and welding, a variety of shipwright services, and mechanical and electrical overhauls; Todd also brings to the business considerable sailing and rigging experience. In 2017, B+G began offering clients continuity of its BVI services with a service centre in Newport, RI, making it the first full-service BVI yacht management company to be able to do so. B+G continues to evolve in order to bring our clients first rate service, so that they may always enjoy their yachts to the fullest. With this ongoing commitment to customer service, B+G opened a third service location, in Virginia, VA, in May 2022.
