Beschreibung
Hi my name is Alex and I own and manage two boats that are used for youth sailing camps in the summer months. A 50’ schooner, and a 53' schooner. From June-August the boats are under contract and chartered for team building and sailing instruction. That keeps myself and a hired captain very busy in the summer months, but the rest of the year we have the boats to maintain, but also use for sailing adventures and lessons in the Virgin Islands!
The task is helping out on two cool sailboats in the US virgin islands., a 53' schooner and a 50’ schooner.
Accommodations are aboard the 53' steel expedition style schooner. She has 9 berths aboard and a lot of deck space for sleeping in hammocks under the stars on clear nights.
The boat is docked at the beautiful Sapphire Marina, there is a beautiful beach as well as a pool. from here it is easy to access the bus routes on STT. Red Hook is a 7 minute walk away where there is plenty to do. Also the ferry to St John leaves from Red Hook.Arten von Hilfe und Lernmöglichkeiten

there are 9 berths in 4 shared cabins with one shared bathroom and a outdoor shower. usually we wont have more than 3 or 4 workawayers aboard so there is a lot of space aboard the 53' schooner! each bunk has a privacy curtain, fan, and reading light.
She has a galley(kitchen) with a small fridge and stove, but plenty of cooking space.Was noch ...
Lots of activities around the USVI! . There are lots of sights, beaches, and bars on St Thomas that make the day life and night life exciting all the time. a 15 minute ferry ride from St Thomas is St John, the most beautiful island In the USVI with 75% being national park there are countless untouched beaches and exciting trails to be explored. St Thomas and St John can easily be explored in your own time anytime
