Classic Afternoon Schooner Sail

The Adirondack II is a trim schooner that cuts through the waves in a thrilling ride. As we heeled I dipped my fingers in the sea spray. I was having the most fun of anything we did this summer. The crew was capable, helpful and unobtrusive. A few highlights were mentioned but not a narration. I liked the quiet.

My group had a wonderful time sailing with the knowledgeable and friendly crew. They even let us steer the boat, and that was nothing short of AMAZING!! I can't even begin to describe what a great time we all had at such an affordable price. Thank you for providing such an amazing experience that can be enjoyed by anyone regardless of age. I know even someone who's already thinking of chartering for an upcoming event!

I brought my two teenage daughters with me on this trip. They both enjoyed the sail around the harbor. The crew was enthusiastic, hardworking and professional. The captain gave us a commentary about the highlights of Newport including interesting facts. He was very informative without droning on. The sail is relaxing and the crew could not have been nicer. They asked about where we are from and if we enjoy sailing etc. The weather was ideal, sunny, high 70's and the 1 pm time is perfect, the wind had picked up just enough to make the ride smooth and easy. As everyone else mentioned, the $1 beer, wine & soda is a hit. The boat was clean and it left the dock on time as well as returned on time. I was very pleased with our experience and would recommend it to anyone especially beginners.

Went on 3PM sail. Can't say enough good about it. Great ship, attentive and informative captain and crew, and a good brisk wind. Also had the opportunity to take the helm which was a real treat. Newport harbour, great views, good company, and $1 beer, wine and soft drinks, it doesn't get any better. I highly recommend it and plan on doing it again (Guys & kids - it beats watching mom shopping any day)

Seeing Newport from the bay gives a different aspect of its beauty. For years we have driven the roads that gives spectacular views of the harbor but none can compare to what you see from sailing the bay. The schooner is beautiful, the crew well informed of the landscapes and having a great "weather day" really added to our trip. JUST DO IT!

We took the sail with our kids and my mother-in-law. It was thoroughly enjoyed by all. The crew was very knowledgeable and clearly wanted passengers to feel comfortable and have a great experience. We'll definitely sail again when we return to Newport.

My husband and I thought this was the best thing we did while in Rhode Island. The captain and crew were friendly, fun and entertaining and the boat was fantastic. We will definitely take this cruise again when we visit RI again. We were also suprised at how economical it was as well.

excellent

This is the second time I went on the Adirondeck II. The captain is great as is the crew. You also get to take the helm for a few minutes. The Bay and Ocean views are outstanding. The price is very reasonable for an hour and a half. Go....Preferably on a sunny day.

The Captain and crew were great. No need to travel with a large group, the captain provides plenty of entertainment! Very knowlegable and informative throughout the sail. Our Sail was mostly under motor (no wind) but that didn't take away from the experience one bit. Enjoyed it very much and would recommend it to anyone and would take it again on the next visit.
