Boat from SXM to Dominica?

Is there such a thing? I see its only 27 miles away from tip to tip of land.

I was just wondering if I could take advantage of the "nature island" aspect of Dominica

If you were referring to Saba, there are boats and planes that go there every day. The plane ride is only a couple minutes, the boat is about an hour and a half.

additional gas cans? Although I agree that I probably wouldn't want to be 15 miles out on a dinghy.
