I'm planning excursions for my family during our Christmas vacation onSJ. I'm planning on booking with Breakway for BVI, Trisel ll for afternoon day sail snorkel,
White Wing for all day sailing and snorkeling. Any feedback? Also, we want to do
Noah's Little Arc for dingey for the day to snorkel on our own. Any comments would be appreciated.

Breakaway is an awesome boat, and, rumor is, it was just bought by the New Horizons (New Horizons is a super-nice, 65' sloop that does full day sails and sunset/dinner sails - New Horizons II is a 48'ish scarab-style speedboat that does INCREDIBLE BVI trips), based out of Sapphire Marina on STT. You can check them out at www.newhorizonsvi.com and www.newhorizonscharters.com. Maybe if you were to contact Holly (she is the owner, with her husband, Tim) she can cut you a special if you are going to do New Horizons for your full day (instead of White Wing), as well as Breakaway? Tell her that I said to try and it might work. If there is no contact info on the sites ,you can call Holly at 340-775-1171.

I can second Marty's recommendation about New Horizons. We sailed on it for a day trip and it was the highlight of our trip. The crew was terrific!
We will be in St. john at SPLASH villa from the 6-20 of may and would like to rent a dinghy or small whaler for a week or two. Are any of the boat rentals on line? could you send phone numbers or email addresses. Thank you so much, mary and john burt
