About
Makaira is a 42′ Renaissance Prowler, and the half day is a relaxed, no-rush way to get out on the water around St. Thomas and St. John. The setup is all about comfort — oversized bucket seats, bow loungers, and bean bags — so even a shorter trip feels like a proper hangout rather than a quick spin. The captain points you toward the best nearby snorkel spots and beaches, with local beer and seltzer aboard to keep it easy. For groups who want a laid-back few hours on the water without committing to a full day, it's an easy yes.
