Second Yacht Information:
Come Sail With Us on Kindred Spirit II (3 Bed & Bath, Sleeps7)
Kindred Spirit II is part of Kindred Spirit Charters a small company that is owner operated on St John in the US Virgin Islands. We specialize in overnight sailing excursions. Kindred Spirit II is a 2011 Robertson and Caine Leopard 46. She was built for comfort and strength in South Africa. She is 46 feet long and 25 feet wide and has a flaring hull design which makes her handle swell more efficiently and allows for more room in the cabins. Since March of 2018 Kindred Spirit Charters has been upgrading this 46 to bring everything up to our high standards. The full rebranding and paint job will be completed this summer making her look more like her older sister. The main differences between the boats is that KS2 is significantly larger regardless of only being 1 foot longer and has a diesel generator allowing us to have AC. She weighs almost twice as much as KS1 coming in at 37 gross tons and is also equipped with sail drives that allow for more efficient motoring and sailing.

AvailableOur crew at Sail Kindred Spirit has been sailing in these waters for over a decade. We know all the best dining, hiking, snorkeling, scuba diving and beach locations. You tell us what type of unique vacation you desire and our crew will put together custom menus and itineraries to fit your needs. There is no better way to see the USVI and BVI's. Chris Shoupe purchased this Boat in 2014
A dream of ours was to stay on a sailboat in the Caribbean. We are hard working mid-western folks who looked for quite awhile for the right opportunity. We looked at other brokered and chartered yachts, they were either too expensive or just didn’t feel right. Based on a recommendation from a coworker we checked out the Kindred Spirit for our vacation. We were still a bit apprehensive because it was a dream and we wanted it to go perfectly. I can honestly say Chris and Elizabeth blew away our expectations. We were able to charter for five days with food and drinks included at a reasonable price. The food was incredible! We were invited into their “home”, Kindred Spirit, treated like family, and we were shown the best of the Virgin Islands! I would recommend this Charter to anyone who thought this was only a dream and was unattainable. Great food, fabulous hosts, a trip of a lifetime!! You will not be disappointed!
My wife and I along with two other couples spent 5 nights with Captain Chris and his first mate Elizabeth in November. From the moment they picked us up on St. John, they made us feel at home on their boat. They are incredibly nice, personable, and knowledgeable hosts. They know the islands like they are natives. They took us to excellent snorkeling locations, secluded beaches, all of the bar hot spots, and educated us about different attractions in the islands. The food they prepared was excellent and better than the restaurants we dined in. They are completely laid back and let you make the decisions about what to eat and what to do, but always have great suggestions taking into account the itinerary that you choose. While we sailed from place to place, Elizabeth would make us different drinks and whip up tasty snacks. The cooler was always stocked with cold beer and us winos never ran out of red wine. The all-inclusive option is really the way to go. Chris and Elizabeth really enjoy what they do and it shows in the way they treat their guests. Lastly, the boat is very sturdy and my wife who even gets car sick never got sea sick.
Expectations shattered - bar set very very high. We are on the return trip home having spent the past few days with Elizabeth and Chris. True professionals, extraordinary service, seamless experience. Oh and the food - restaurant quality from a galley - color me impressed. We will most definitely be back - hopefully many times over.
I cannot say enough about this boat and the crew. Kara and Morgan were off the chart. They immediately became part of TeamSS with a singular goal of creating a memorable trip. We managed to stop at all of the hotspots we requested and some additional spots new to us. Kara and Morgan were both extremely knowledgeable and professional whether it was tips on how to gracefully exit the dinghy or how to find quiet a spot to catch a few zzzz's on the Kindred Spirit. Food was undoubtedly better than some of the $200 meals I had on shore. Cannot believe that I went years with Tony Chachere's in our cabinet and never put it on my eggs. After many island trips we decided to try a chartering for a day or two. Best decision we ever made. We have already decided next year will be a 7-day charter and we can think of no one better to do that with than Kara and Morgan. If you are on the fence about chartering please do yourself a favor and charter this boat. While the owners were stateside they were very accommodating and ensured that we had everything needed. If you do luck out and are able to get Kara and Morgan, I promise that you will have a memorable trip and be as hooked as #teamSS.
My time spent on the Kindred Spirit was wonderful. Our crew, Jeremy and Kara, were extremely knowledgeable and professional. They did a great job tailoring the experience to what we wanted it to be and the food and drinks were delicious. It was unlike anything I had ever done before.
