Can you give contexts for these types of questions; did this appear anywhere?

In terms of this sentence, the last part (visit Bora Bora) is unnecessary as the verb and the object are the same as in the first part.

You should also capitalize "Bora Bora"

Thanks Issac
I think "will" should come immediately after "I"
Plz advise.

I would write:

I have not visited Bora Bora and probably never will [visit Bora Bora].

There's only one subject: I, and we shouldn't have to repeat the verb and object.
Yep.
