Anchored Charters was founded by D'mani Smith, whose connection to the sea runs deep.
Growing up on the water alongside his father Wil Smith, and grandfather, the late Ira Smith, his family owns and operates Smith's Ferry Services. Here, D'mani developed an early connection to boating, island travel, and life at sea.
After moving to the United States, he built his professional career in Sales, Customer Service and Guest Experience with Audi and later Porsche, shaping his understanding of what exceptional service should feel and look like personal, seamless, attentive, and memorable.
Anchored Charters was born to bring that same standard of service to the charter industry in the British Virgin Islands (B.V.I).
The goal is not simply to transport guests from one destination to another, but to craft an experience that feels thoughtful from start to finish. From the welcome onboard, to the smallest details throughout the day, Anchored Charters is focused on delivering a high level of personalized service and creating lasting memories through delightful moments.
Rooted in generations of experience on the water and shaped by a background in luxury service, D'mani's vision is simple:
A charter experience that feels authentically B.V.I, elevated in every detail.
