Virgin Islands Contender Speedboat
This 35′ Contender has been customized by our team for the ultimate day out on the water! The boat has ample seating for 10 passengers and includes a lounging chair in front and oversized bench seating at the back for maximum comfort. The oversized hard top makes for added shade when you are in need of a break from the sun, and the built-in cooler is stocked with water, sodas and beer to keep you refreshed all day long! This boat also boasts a number of other features including snorkel gear provided, a stereo system with Bluetooth input, and Garmin GPS and radar. The double stepped hull design paired with twin 300 HP Mercury engines (600 HP total) make for a smooth ride.
Sit back and relax as one of our knowledgeable captains commands the boat. They know these islands and waters better than anyone and will gladly help you chart out a plan for your trip once you arrive. There are many hidden gems that only a captain knows and can navigate, from floating restaurants to secluded beaches and uninhabited islands. We check the weather forecast and sea conditions regularly to give you the best tips and locations for your perfect day.

Reef-safe sunscreens are required in the Virgin Islands as those that are not reef safe can harm or even kill the coral and wildlife. We also ask that you do not bring or use “Sport” or aerosol types of sun protection as they make the floors very slippery and they stain the upholstery. Rash Guards that have SPF built in are also an excellent option for reducing exposure to the sun. You can visit our store Low Key Watersports for a selection of reef-safe sunscreen; you even receive 10% off the day of your trip!
-
A passport is only required if you plan on visiting the British Virgin Islands (next group of islands over). If so, passports are required for everyone on board no matter what age, and they must not be expired! If you do not have a passport there are an abundance of islands, snorkeling spots, and fun to be had within the U.S. Virgin Islands waters.
-
Fuel cost based on usage will be an additional charge at the end of your trip. It is payable by cash or it can be added to your card on file.
Gratuity for your Charter Captain is always appreciated. Similar to other service industry staff, 20% (of the boat price) is a standard gratuity for excellent service.
-
If bad weather causes us to cancel a trip the customer will never lose money. We will try and re-book the trip as soon as possible. If availability or your schedule will not allow re-booking, your full payment will be refunded.
-
You’ll receive a full refund if you cancel at least 48 hours in advance. Cancellations should be made by phone during business hours. If you must make a cancellation by email or over voicemail, please make sure to confirm receipt of your message.
