We chartered from http://www.sunsail.com/ in St. Martin last fall, and had
an excellent sail. We've used them in the past, and had good results.

As there were 8 of us on the StM trip, we went with a Beneteau 50.
The staff were excellent, the boat was well-prepped (albeit on 'Caribbean
time'g), and a good time was had by all.

In 11 days of sailing we had the opportunity to do St. Barts, St. Kitts,
Nevis, St. Eustatius, and Ille Fourche at an appropriately leisurely pace.

HTH.

LC~ Looking forward to sailing Thailand next year.
