| We enjoyed our foliage sail tremendously. Great personalized service and attention. Captain Julian and his crew (Michael and Mike) were hospitable and friendly. Real pros. Loved the little touches such as the blankets and the caramel apples. Nice selection of drinks including hot apple cider! Have already been recommending it to my friends. |

| I went on this trip with a small group of friends and my wife. The weather was great; the crew very professional, friendly and informative; the lunch was tasty; and the service impressive (especially navigating the deck with out loosing their balance). Of course the schooner itself was beautiful. |

| I happened to get great weather, it was sunny and in the 60's so I was more than pleased with the outing.
Everything about it was great boat, crew, food and drinks. |

Great time if the weather holds up

| We had high expectations for the Fall Foliage Sail. The weather was not perfect - but the crew and passengers made the most of it. If the sun peeked out a bit more we probably would've seen some spectacular foliage. It lasted a little longer then I liked, but that was because we had to sail past the GW bridge, which took quite a while to get to. I'd recommend this trip but only if the weather looks like it will cooperate. |

| Missed it last year and vowed to go this year. Well worth it! Staff was very friendly. Weather was perfect. A little chilly but on-board blankets did the trick. Thanks!!! |

| I would never do this again nor would I recommend this to anyone. It was LONG and boring. There were not enough cushions so several people had to sit on the hard cold cabin tops and the crew looked hung over and surly. The beer was gross, like it had been chilled and then left out and chilled again, the crew passed out the lunch and when we asked what kind or wrap it was they replied "I have no idea", so I asked it this the only kind of wrap they had and the reply was "I have no idea". This was a terribly way to spend the day and would never do anything with this company again. |

| This was a surprise birthday excursion with a friend and we had a blast. The cruise wasn't fully booked so there was room on the schooner to spread out. The crew was capable and friendly. They made sure we had whatever we wanted to drink. Captain Kat was a delight from the moment she greeted us with her enthusiastic invitation "Let's go sailing!"
The schooner was beautiful. It was so cool having conventional tour boats pass us and see lots of their passengers taking photos of us.
We motored north to the George Washington Bridge, then caught enough wind to actually sail the rest of the journey. Watching the crew and captain handle the sails was fascinating. There were a few moments when we dipped way to one side and the passengers had to hang on. That made the trip exciting.
The boxed lunch was tasty: a good-sized turkey wrap with cranberry-mayo dressing, couscous with raisins and a slice of pie (pumpkin or apple). Folks also seemed to enjoy the warm cider, although I didn't have any of that.
Points of interest we saw included Seaman's Memorial, Grant's Tomb and the Pallisades. Sailing under the GW Bridge was also a treat. I wish there was a way to link photos to this review. |

| We definitely enjoyed the fall foliage sail on a beautiful, crisp and sunny Fall day. Our crew (Julian and Mikes) were very attentive and fun! The food/drinks were great, and we enjoyed the candy apples! We enthusiastically recommend this to our friends and family, and we hope to sail on one of the schooners again soon. |
