Amalie Car Rental. Their jeeps can go to St. John. Amy is wonderful to work with - they pick up/drop off at the airport and you may be able to talk them into meeting you at a marina.
Paradise will pick up/drop off at marinas. Not sure about their inventory (type of vehicles) or policies for taking vehicles to St. John. If you want to spend a day and early evening in St John you’re better off leaving your rental at the Red Hook ferry dock and take the passenger ferry that leaves every hour and get a day rental in Cruz bay. The car ferries are slow and you’ll waste time loading and reloading your car. There’s a substantial savings taking the passenger ferry which will make the St John rental a bargain.

I disagree with the day rental on St. John. The car barges run regularly now and many St. John rental agencies will not rent by the day - especially in advance. You may have to show up day of rental to see what is available. The car barges aren’t something you want to do in one day if you want to tour the island and maybe have a late lunch or dinner. It’s much more convenient at the end of the day to just hop on the passenger ferry back to St Thomas There are many car rental places in Cruz bay, it would be advisable to call ahead a reserve a 4WD during peak season.

We have six adults for a late Jan charter. for STT to Compass Point charter base and provisioning. do we need two cars, one minivan, or one car and two take a taxi?
We plan a 5night post sail villa stay on St John’s, if we take the passenger ferry to Cruz bay, are there six pax vehicles for rent on St John’s?
Thanks!

St. John's is in New Brunswick, Canada. I hope you aren't trying to go there. OK, blame autocorrect, lazy, or ignorance! No apostrophe or S. So what do three couples sharing a villa do for transportation on St John?
