About Us
Morningstar Charters is a family owned and owner- operated sailing charter based out of Cruz Bay, St. John catering to guests visiting St. Thomas and St. John year round. Captain Mike started his sailing career in 2000 as a first mate to the original owner of Morningstar Charters (some of you may remember…Captain Jake!) The wind, the sea and the excitement for meeting new people every day to provide an unforgettable experience got in Mike’s blood and he hasn’t looked back.
Sail pristine water to secluded spots around St. Thomas and St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands, on S/V Thin Air our 40′ Sloop Rigged Monohull. Snorkeling, lunch and personal service are all a part of your Caribbean vacation adventure.
Our “Late Classic” Sail Boat
Our classic sailing vessel is a beautiful and sea worthy Laurent Giles, 40 ft. sloop. New to us this season as we suffered a devastating loss of our beloved Winifred during the category 5 hurricane, Irma, in September 2017. “Thin Air” had actually unofficially joined our fleet in May of 2017 in hopes of expanding our small family business and survived the hurricanes in the boat yard of our neighboring US Virgin Island, St. Croix.
We are grateful for her strength as she has seamlessly taken the reigns showing our guests and her crew the true beauty of surrendering to the wind.
And our new 30 ft “Cat” Powerboat
Sit back and relax in our spacious, shaded, Floating Lounge while enjoying the comfortable accommodations in one of many cushioned seats… Or catch some rays in our plush bean bag chairs for two while you enjoy the quick and comfortable ride aboard our Custom Built 30 ft Power Catamaran. Your captain and Crew will gladly deliver you to beautiful beaches, delicious eats and amazing, crystal clear harbors lined with white sugar sand and the natural beauty of the Virgin Islands National Park.
