We will be traveling as a group of 7 to St. Thomas 6/24 - 7/4. We're interested in setting up an 8-hour day trip with Born to Rhumb. If I understand correctly, the cost is $980/day including up to 12 passengers. Would anyone like to share the cost with us? Would be interested in visiting the Baths, Willy T bar/restaurant, snorkeling at the Indians, and perhaps a quick stop at a deserted key or two for snorkeling. Exact itinerary could be worked out. We are four adults in their 40's with three 16-17 year olds.....All up for a great day and lots of laughs.

Hi Lisa,

Just make sure you check with Captain Kevin on his availability- I know he usually leaves the island for several months in the summer. You will absolutely LOVE this day!!!

I think that it's 980.00 a day for the minimum of 7, but if you go up to 12, it's still 140.00 PP. At least that's the way I understand it. If not, then that deal is incredible considering that you don't have to pay for gas, or customs and you can bring your own lunch if you want.

I think Connie is right. It is 980 up to 7 passengers. I you have more than 7, each additional person still has to pay $140 per adult.

Thanks - I emailed him already. Looks like he will be "in town," haven't confirmed the exact day yet though. Sounds like a lot of fun. Last year, while on St. Thomas, we went to Virgin Gorda and Norman caves with New Horizons II for a day trip. As I recall, it was about $100 pp. It was a great, great day. Only disappointed in the fact that we spent only about 1/2 hour at the Baths. We're coming back this year with friends, and would love for them to see the Baths also. This trip sounds ideal, especially with the opportunity to plan you own itinerary. Thanks all for the information!! As I'm sure you know, I'm counting down the days..... Ah Sunshine, clear Caribbean water....rum drinks....

Last year we went on Horizons II and it cost us 120.00 for the trip, 20.00 for customs, so that's 140.00. Then with the price of lunch it ended up being over 200.00.
