After you snorkel and explore the island of St John the Captain and crew provide a delicious lunch of barbecue chicken, corn on the cob, sautéed vegetables, buttered rolls and Champagne all cooked fresh right on board the boat. After lunch you can set off to explore the uninhabited Islands and Cays surrounding St. John, Mingo, La Vongo, Grass and Thatch Cay. There you will find some of the best snorkeling and sailing anywhere in the Virgin Islands. Finally with a maximum of six passengers, you can take a turn at the helm or just lay back and relax and soak up the tropical sun while enjoying the pleasures of being pampered on your own 42 foot sailing yacht.Morningstar Update: We have just added a beautiful 42' Sparkman Stephens to our fleet. We can now accommodate up to 12 guests per day (6 per boat) in fabulous Regatta Sails. We pride ourselves in being the most flexible and customer service focused attraction on island. Please feel free to contact us at any time for all of your vacation needs! « less

Mike is meant to do this! Perfect skipper with entertaining stories and positive attitude. Josh was the best first mate I've ever come across. He knows what it really means to be hospitable. It happened to pour down rain when we were out all day but it was still amazing! Says a lot about the company you're with. I would... More

We set up our trip online and received immediate pricing information. We then asked for options on going 2 different days and were given confirmation on our 1st day - awsome! They only send the boat out if they have at least 2 couples, but no more than 3 are allowed. You are on a VERY PRIVATE excursion. Our crew... More

My wife and our parents took this day sail at our first port of a 5 port cruise. The only problem that we had was that the following excursions fell VERY short. By far the best day of our 10 day vacation. Captain Dave and Shelby could have not been more accommodating and attentive. Snorkeling was great, food was awesome... More

Captain Mike and ship mate Shelby made our day absolutely fantastic! It says a lot when you can have the time of your life even in the middle of pouring down rain! Great staff, great food, great drinks, and an absolutely amazing sailing experience. The view of the islands and water took my breath away! Thanks Mike and Shelby, we... More

Captain David and Josh were amazing. We had the absolute best day. Booze was flowing, sun was shining and the waters were an amazing blue. Lunch was the best thing we ate all week! Grilled chicken, corn, peppers and onions. They were very kind and hospitable! You must book with them!! More

My wife and I took the day sail trip in late April 2012. Our boat was staffed by Captain David and First Mate Josh. We had a great time -- this was hands down the best part of our week trip to St. Thomas. There are two boats -- the Morningstar and the Winifred. Our day, each boat took our... More

I had a wonderful time on the boat with Mike! We hit some rain, but he remained to keep us entertained and our cocktails tasty! The others on board were all super nice and great to get to know in just a few short hours. It's a great trip to take while staying in the islands and would recommend Morningstar... More

Four of us did this is February. It was the best excursion of the entire trip. We joined just two others plus Captain and Firstmate. The crew was wonderful. Waited on our late cruise ship (like really waited). They were very sensitive to cruise departure times too. At sea, while boats of a million tourists passed by...there were 6 of... More

Best excursion we do on our cruises. Best. Best of any zip-line, private tour, rum factory, horseback riding, etc. Best. These guys are awesome, and we highly recommend paying the extra for a private experience. They will take you where you want to go. They will visit with you, or leave you alone. They will take you to the best... More

We had an amazing day with Captain Dave and his first mate Josh sailing to Honeymoon Beach on the island of St. John. We sailed with 2 other couples. It was very relaxing with five star service. Despite having bad news from home that morning we were able to enjoy the trip and even forget a little bit about what... More
