Overview
Our 37ft Midnight Express is the fast, sleek way to see the Virgin Islands: an all-black custom hull with three 300 hp engines and room for up to 12 guests. A large arched hardtop and a removable bow shade keep you out of the sun, with a horseshoe aft bench and two lie-flat sun loungers up front. There is a marine head inside the console, fresh-water showers forward and aft, built-in coolers for ice, drinks and food, a Bluetooth sound system, and a side dive door that opens fully into the water for easy swimming and snorkelling.
Your day, your way: snorkel with sea turtles and rays around St. Thomas and St. John, stop for lunch in Cruz Bay or at a beach bar on Water Island, or cross into the British Virgin Islands for The Baths and Jost Van Dyke. Your U.S. Coast Guard licensed captain plans the day with you and handles the customs paperwork on BVI days. Water, ice, snorkel gear and pool noodles are on board, and you are welcome to bring your own drinks and snacks.
