Day Sail on the "Lou" in St. Thomas

We recently were in St. Thomas on a cruise, and booked a day sail in advance on the "Lou", with Captain Maxine. It was such an awesome experience that I wanted to share it with you. We left the ship at 8:00 am and by taxi went to Red Hook where Captain Maxine met us. She has a beautiful sailboat - you can see a pic of it at www.sailwithcaptainmax.com. We left before 9 and got on the water immediately. Wow, what an experience, the pristine waters all around St. Thomas and St. John.

We stopped at two different sites, where we were the only people in site. Snorkeling was great, but then we spent time relaxing too. The food was outstanding, with drinks flowing all day. The water is so crystal clear that you just want to dive right in. The fish were beautiful. We happened to be the only two on the boat that day - but they can take up to 6.

I can't recommend the Lou with Captain Maxine enough. It was the highlight of our trip. We even got back in time to shop in St. Thomas for an hour or so and then on to the ship. (Our ship left at 6). Let me know if you have any questions. The price was approximately $110 per person, but you could verify by e-mailing her at seamax@islands.vi or again, www.sailwithcaptainmax.com. Have a great time if you go!

I think we were on that day sail one year. Was Captain Maxine in a wheelchair by any chance?

Day Sails

St Thomas has a few of these... My Fiance and I had a wonderful time on the Winifred with Sharon as our captain. Her first mate Tommy took us out snorkeling, showed us eels and rays along with everything else, and then cooked us lunch!!! We had such a wonderful time, and the boat was beautiful.
Highly recommend!
