The nonprofit association Caribbean Sail Training has announced that the commercial sailing ship STAD AMSTERDAM has arrived in the Baie de Marigot in Saint Martin from Johannesburg South Africa.

The ship made a stop in St. Helena and later on at the Tobago Cays in the Grenadines before arriving for a longer stop in Marigot.

The Stad Amsterdam will stop three more times in Marigot this season to embark and disembark guests and leave to the Bahamas the second week in May.

The vessel will hold an half day open ship on APRIL 13, 2025. From 1400 hrs until 1700 hrs (2.00 pm until 5.00 pm) She will be docked at the main Galisbay Pier in Marigot.

In an arrangement with their ship agent Yacht Assistance, the commercial vessel agreed to cooperate with the nonprofit association Caribbean Sail Training for an educational half day sailing trip in the morning for CST members and youth and offer an "Open Ship" afternoon to the general public.

The "Open Ship" visit is free of cost. CST has again arranged free shuttle bus transport from the entrance of the Galisbay Port to and back from the ship.

No walking and smoking is allowed in the Port.
