Set Sail for an unforgettable day on this special sailing yacht. This tour encompasses sailing, site seeing and incredible snorkeling on a comfortable sailboat with ample space for those that wish to catch some rays while we sail the calm tropical waters between the Islands of St Thomas and St. John while enjoying a champagne or a cold beer from the open bar.

This custom built 61 foot classic sailboat is truly a rare treasure. She is a wonderful example of the classic grace and beauty of yachts designed and built before the days of mass production. She was custom built in Sweden in 1956 and has been completely rebuilt to incorporate the comfort and safety requirements of our passengers today. The updated deck layout insures ample seating for the best possible day sail experience. This stunning vessel is crewed by the highly experience Captain/Owner who has been sailing her for over 30 years.

The Champagne Sailing Excursion begins with a continental breakfast on deck including coffee, pastries and fresh fruit and Bloody Mary's if you so choose.  Following your breakfast we head off on an exhilarating sail across Pilsbury sound towards the quieter destination of St John, with the British Virgin Island and the smaller cays of the USVI as a backdrop

This tour includes two snorkeling destinations which are determined by the Captain based on the wind and sea conditions of the day. Hawksnest Bay is one of our favorites for the first stop. Here you will find calm water, and incredible clarity, with visibility often 40-80ft!. Coral formations, tropical fish, and turtles abound.
 

Your second stop, will likewise provide amazing snorkeling. Caneel Bay being a favorite second stop for snorkeling. Huge shoals of tiny baitfish abound here and you will see the larger jacks and snapper chasing them in waves of silver around the boat, while pelicans and other seabirds swoop in to join the feast.

 

After snorkeling your 2nd stop, its time for lunch, with Caribbean chicken and pasta salad and some devilled eggs. Drinks service is second to none, with champagne, mimosas, and hibiscus cocktails being a house specialty, not to mention choice of cold beers and a full open bar.
 

Then, its time to set the sails again, and head back down the coast of this wonderful national park area (and hang out of the rich and famous). Passing the famous Caneel resort built by Rockerfeller in the late 40’s, you can stretch out on deck with a cool drink and play millionaire, at least for the rest of the afternoon.
