Pusser's Outposts and Webcams

You can find Pusser's Outposts all over the world and in the magical
islands of the Caribbean. Here in the pristine and yet unspoiled
British Virgin Islands, where trade winds rustle the palm trees, and
the warm waters of the surrounding sea are a daily part of life, where
sugar cane and rum are akin to the grape and champagne, lies the home
of our Pusser's restaurants, bars and Pusser's Co. Stores selling our
own line of Pusser's proprietary tropical apparel. And just off the
east end of Tortola, lies our little island of
Marina Cay
with its small 8-bedroom hotel, restaurant and bar. Marina Cay is truly
one of the most beautiful sites in the Caribbean. Come here now and

It all started with the rum ...
The sea and rum are synonymous, and no rum more akin to the sea and
the seaman than PUSSER'S. For more than 300 years, from before the days
of Nelson, wooden ships and iron men, Great Britain's Royal Navy issued
a daily rum ration on board Their Majesties' ships. This tradition, one
of the longest in seafaring history, continued unbroken from 1655 to
July 31, 1970, on which day the Navy stopped their daily issue of
Pusser's rum.
In 1979, Charles Tobias formed Pusser's West Indies in the British
Virgin Islands and undertook to resurrect the Pusser's Rum tradition
with which he was familiar. After much persuasion, the Admiralty Board
of the Royal Navy gave him the blend for the rum and shortly
afterwards, Pusser's Rum was being shipped commercially for the first
time. In return, the Royal Navy Sailor's Fund, a naval charity,
receives a substantial donation from the sale of each case. This
contribution, aside from the Fund's original bequest, is the Fund's
largest source of income.
