Highlights
  • The VI Cat - Travel independently via taxi or driving to the Marriott Frenchman’s Cove, timing your journey to arrive by 5:00pm where you will check in with The VI Cat’s Crew on the DOCK.

Guests can park for free in the large, flat gravel parking lot on the right hand side after the security gate. From there, follow signs that say “public access to the beach”. The large wooden dock is off of the beach, next to the pool.

  • Charlotte Amalie - Then, admire ‘The Cat’, our 54-foot (16-meter), US Coast Guard certified, sleek sailing catamaran that will take you on your 2-hour harbor lights dinner sail.

Once you meet your Captain and Crew, step aboard and find a comfortable spot to relax on deck. Watch as the sails are raised and absorb the views as The Cat sails into the open sea where you will dine on a delicious BBQ dinner prepared by The Cat’s own caterer. Be sure to watch as the lights of Charlotte Amalie come to life. Keep an eye out for any cruise ships or yachts that may pass by while sailing around the Harbour of Charlotte Amalie.

  • The VI Cat - After dinner, absorb the views and breezes, maybe even enjoy a little dancing while you cruise back to the Marriott’s Frenchman’s Cove, where your 2-hour trip concludes. Don’t forget to tip your crew!

Our last night on St Thomas was memorable. - We had wonderful time,crew knowledgeable about area and wildlife, food was good but nothing fancy. Good job to crew members Mike, and Andre, and lady captain (Nicolet? sorry poor memory of names.) The Marriot hotel is quite the labyrinth trying to find our way out and in.

What a Fabulous Night! - What a fabulous evening. It was NOT overcrowded, lots of room and just a lot of fun. I went on Friday and it was BBQ. The selections were really good. Food was flavorful and you were able to go up and get more food. We got to take a lot of pictures and our crew, Michael, Mike, Anders and Tim were outstanding. If you have a chance sail with them because they make it fun!!!!

Always a Great Time! - This was our 2nd dinner cruise on the VI Cat. It is always a wonderful experience! The views from the deck were spectacular and once they raise the main sail, the quietness of sailing the Carribbean is extremely cool. Our group really appreciated the hard work you guys always put in to make our experience great! 1 thing I would suggest, remind your guests of the shirts you guys have for sale during the trip! It's free advertisement! We bought 4!

Spectacular evening relaxing on a boat enjoying beautiful scenes and delicious drinks and food. - Our family of 5 (with 3 older kids 17-21) enjoyed a wonderful evening sailing the Carribean sea. The crew was very fun, attentive and organized. The drinks were free flowing and the food was delicious. The boat was beautiful and had plenty of space for everyone. We got some local history and a terrific evening was had by all.

Good Peaceful Experience - The views were amazing especially at night. The drinks were abundant but the food was mediocre because the food wasn’t warm. There was still plenty to during the ride, which is a plus when you’re drinking. Bring an umbrella a sun screen to protect you from the sun during your 30min early arrival and be ready to take your shoes off and enjoy the beautiful ocean!
