| This cruise was beautiful and informational. The guides were very knowledgeable about Newport and the sights they were pointing out. This was a fun and relaxing way to see Newport! Dress appropriately, the wind is a lot cooler on the water! I would reccomend this to everyone, of all ages! |

Very nice sailing trip. Good crew.

| The crew was very friendly. Cost for sodas, beer and wine was reasonable. The boat was in very good shape. The 3:00 trip for 90 minutes fit perfectly into our schedule. |

| I enjoyed the ride. We had a beautiful day. The crew was friendly and told us great stories. I would reccommend that you make it a little longer, maybe two hours. It would be great to sail a little around the penninsula and hear about more houses/newport. I would reccommend this sail boat ride. Very enjoyable! |

| Our family had a fabulous time on the afternoon trip. The crew was friendly and informative. $1 beverages were a nice bonus! The only downside is that the time went by too fast! Highly recommended! |

| We don't live far from Newport and get down there a few times per year. We always wanted to try a harbor sail cruise and finally took the time to do so this past weekend. I can't say enough what a great experience it was. Booking it was easy, the crew was great, the price was reasonable, and the experience was a memory we'll never forget. The boat leaves from Bowen's wharf, motors out a couple minutes to get clear of other boats, and then sets sail. On our day the wind and sun were perfect, offering an exciting but stable ride. The crew provides stories about the local landmarks as you pass, and keeps the $1 drinks flowing if you'd like. Beer, wine, and soda are $1 and water is free. The sail is exciting, and for the very old and very young you'll want to caution them ahead of time on how to move around a boat under sail. The boat does heel 45 degrees or so when under sail, if you want things to be level (and boring) then a motorboat harbor cruise might be more your speed. If you are looking for an exciting and romantic adventure, then this is the trip for you. |

| We would have preferred a less packed venue, and we would have skipped altogether if we knew there would be so many small children. |

| This afternoon sail was absolutely delightful, with a helpful crew, spotless sailing schooner, and many fun sights along the way. We would recommend this schooner sail to everyone! |

| Took cruise on Adirondack II with 2 boys, aged 9 and 11. The captain and crew were friendly, accommodating and kind. Captain and crew were knowledgeable about area and willingly shared all they knew. Captain interacted well with boys and gave them a lot of information about boats and sailing. They even got to steer! The 9 year old even wants to begin sailing lessons! The crew certainly took notice of all passengers and made every attempt to keep all engaged, comfortable and happy! If you want to cruise the harbor-consider the Adirondack II. |
