OLD SCHOOL SHIP PROVIDES NEW WORLD FUN

St. Maarten



Dating as far back as Christopher Columbus, tall ships have been traveling the world by sea. In St. Maarten, Robert Ash has captained the Lord Sheffield since 2003, creating adventures for tourists from every part of the world. The ship is located just minutes from the cruise ship docks in Phillipsburg, St. Maarten, and is always prepared to take on the open sea.

Imagine being on the deck of a 72-square-foot brigantine for a day of sun, sailing the blue waters of the Caribbean. Listen to the quiet waves splash the side of the vessel while you enjoy a frozen drink or play with your kids as they play pirates. There are no limits on the Lord Sheffield; offering snorkeling, swimming and romantic sunset cruises, they provide something to fit everyone's needs. If you are getting married, look no further. Bring your ceremony onto the deck of the ship and even take your guests on an evening sail to make your wedding one to remember.

The ship can accommodate a maximum of 25 guests, ensuring you and your guests receive the personal attention you deserve. The ship provides an open bar and a feast that will feed all aboard, and guarantees a care-free day on the sea.
