Blue Point Blog

Ahoy sailors! We are calling this a "blog" but as you can see it's more of a blurb: Quick updates and the latest information about the boat and any island news. Hope you enjoy!

Movin' and a Shakin'

November 9, 2021

We took Sun and Stars out for a shake down sail around St. John to make sure everything was ship shape for our first waive of charter guests this fall. She handled the sail swimmingly and is ready to go. If you want to add any additional amenities to your trip, just let us know. There is nothing better than paddling a SUP over to a beach bar for an afternoon cocktail.

Back in Business

We are so excited about the re-opening of St. Thomas effective on June 1st and are looking forward to welcoming our summer charter guests. The BVI will continue to remain closed to tourism until September, but there is so much to see and do in St. Thomas and St. John that you will not miss a bit of vacation fun.

We do still have some availability, so get in touch with us to book your charter today!

Land Ho!

March 31, 2020

Sun and Stars has arrived in St. Thomas!! We are so grateful that the crew arrived safely and in good health. It might take some time before travel opens up again, but that just gives us something to look forward to.

Bon Voyage!

February 22, 2020

The journey has begun! Sun and Stars left La Rochelle yesterday and is making good time through the bumpy Bay of Biscay. We are hoping she will arrive in St. Thomas by the end of March or early April, but we will have to see if the weather holds up. Wishing her fair winds and following seas.

Splash Down!

February 16, 2020

We have splash down, meaning Sun and Stars is in the water and ready to sail! The weather in La Rochelle has not been cooperating this week so we had to push back the departure date. If the weather clears up then she will begin her journey across the Atlantic later this week. We'll keep you posted!

Bonne Année

January 1, 2020

Happy New Year! After the holiday break, Sun and Stars will be making her way to the beautiful port city of La Rochelle. While there she will get outfitted with lots of the comforts of home: cushions, bbq grill, fridge, etc. Once those upgrades are completed she will begin her journey across the Atlantic!

Fresh Off the Line!

Here are our first pictures of Sun and Stars! She is brand spanking new and has just come out of the factory. Now on to La Rochelle, France to begin the commissioning process.

Annapolis Boat Show

October 13, 2020

We just got back from the Annapolis Boat Show! It was amazing to see all the latest and greatest in sailboating. Of course our favorite part was visiting our sister Saona all shiney and new! Sun and Stars should be arriving just in time for Christmas, aww shucks babe, you shouldn't have! Haha!

What's In a Name?

September 22, 2019

Naming a boat is a really tough decision. We kept a running list of possibilities and every time we heard a catchy phrase or a clever pun we would add it to our list. In the end, we just couldn't imagine this elegant boat with a silly name ("Mr. Boat" and "Ships and Giggles" didn't stand a chance). We decided instead to go with a name that is a term of endearment (at least on Game of Thrones) and also describes our dream for the boat...to enjoy the Sun and Stars!
