Salty Viking Charters runs a single, purpose-built vessel: a 36-foot Aquila luxury power catamaran with hydrofoil-assisted hulls for a fast, dry, and remarkably stable ride. The boat is home-ported in Cruz Bay, St. John, and picks up from Crown Bay Marina on St. Thomas — a five-minute taxi from the STT airport and the cruise dock — so it's one of the very few operators equally suited to St. John renters, downtown Charlotte Amalie hotels, and same-day cruise passengers.
Every charter is private, fully custom, and approved for CBP ROAM digital customs re-entry from the BVI, which shaves a real chunk off the return trip. The bow has full sun loungers, the salon has wraparound shaded seating, and there's a clean private marine head onboard. Salty Viking also runs a dedicated airport water-taxi service between Crown Bay and Cruz Bay for arriving and departing USVI travelers.
