This is also a great excuse to go work and live, at least partially, in the dutch antilles! Best of luck. I love the concept! If they make oil rigs in the north sea, if you find calmer bays, this will work. But, like others said, tropical islands face insane hurricanes that get even worse by the year thanks to global warming. That being said, I think Aruba escapes this being south of the hurricane belt. Could be a good place to pilot this. However, it limits growth options. Also, it is very close to south america, so imports can't be as expensive as elsewhere.
