Sailing for the first time…. - The staff were great and the food and drinks were awesome… highly recommend the experience! That was my first time on a sailboat (grew up on boats though), and it’s something I’d love to do again!

Lovely, fun tour on perfect size ship - Although the wind was lacking on the day of our sail the trip was still fun, relaxing and included beautiful scenery. The food and drinks were delightful. Captain Nate with crew John and Chris could not have been more kind, professional and fun. John has a great singing voice and some funny sailor songs. It was a great adventure for us. We all loved the beautiful ship and had a great time.
