We will be arriving St Thomas in April for bareboat charter out of Red Hook. Have done this a couple of times before, in 2013 and 2014, both times I obtained a rental car from Budget, drove to marina, checked in. Then took car to Food Center for provisions, with sleep aboard that night. Next morning return rental car to a Budget desk at Sapphire Beach Resort, which is very close to the marina. Renting a car for 1 day normally costs about $55 to $60, so a pretty good deal and very convenient. The problem now is Budget recently closed their rental desk at Sapphire Beach.... so trying to determine easiest way to get from SST airport to marina, then be able to provision, etc.. I was not sure about using a taxi service to go to the store, seems a little weird.... On the other two charters, we really liked getting our groceries and drinks at Food Center, only about 1 mile from marina and pretty good selection. There will be 4 in our group for this trip. Any advise or suggestions is appreciated.
