Chikungunya in the Caribbean

Hi,

We are headed out to St Maarten for a 10 sailing trip. CDC put Chikungunya on the radar. Its a mosquito borne transmitted virus, which causes in some cases extreme pain.

What is the best mosquito repellent ? And is it a common practice to have bed netting on a sailboat ?

thanks,
