I have seen this place from time to time in publications and always wished that Sir Branson was a golfer. 

Could you fit a six hole loop on this plot of land: ?

looks pretty tight, Steve...74 acres, lots of beaches, houses, steep elevation....how about 3 or 4?

I wouldn't mind setting up shop for a couple months to give it a try.

In my other life, I am a boat guy and The Virgin Islands are the Monterrey Peninsula of sailing.

Necker is actually too hilly:



Anegada is the spot!



Reality is they have been trying to get permitting for years for a Nicklaus course on Beef Island near the Tortola airport and nothing has happened.

What is the status of the project on an island off the west coast of Ireland where Nick Faldo was hoping to design a course?

This is the project I was thinking of:

As for watering the course, couldn't you use that grass that does well with salt water?

I think you could do some reversible holes and there is nothing against knocking down part of the hills and routing things through them. 

Obviously not going to happen.  Just an interesting mind game.
