This was an amazing way to spend an afternoon and see the city from a different perspective than on the streets. The boat was lovely and the crew very friendly. The complimentary drinks were a nice treat too. |

I booked the day-time sail on the schooner with my boyfriend and his relatives that were visiting from England. It was the first time that any of us in the group had been out on a sail boat. I can say with certainty that this was one of the best experiences that I any of us have had in a very long time!!
The crew was excellent and super friendly! They offered 3 rounds of beer, soda or water, which was a very nice accomodation.
Over all we just had a fantastic time and created a memory that will certainly last forever! |

I would describe the boat ride as fun! The captain and her two helpers were so pleasant, always making sure everyone was comfortable and informed about the river and the boat. It was a very relaxed atmosphere as well. If you are interested, definitely take a look at the website! |

My friends and I went sailing on a sunny afternoon for a bachelorette party, and we had a blast. The scenery was great, and the crew was very friendly. All in all, it was a perfect daytime activity. I wish we had gotten our third round of beers, though! |

The sailing trip was quite enjoyable but a little long. Two hours was just a bit more than we were looking for, especially in the heat. That said, Captin J was a pleasure as was his crew. They were polite and helpful yet unobtrusive. The captin went out of his way to ensure we were able to add an additional passanger at the last moment, which was very much appreciated. I would recommend this or another trip to others. |

This was relaxing and pleasant, the boat isn't huge but doesn't feel crowded, and you get to actually feel the waves and wind!
Sure it doesn't go around the whole island, but you get to see the interesting parts anyway. The only thing I would change would be the weather, more wind! But we all know that's not up to us to decide |
