| The sail was wonderful, the captain was very informative (put a mic on him and let others hear the description of what is being seen), and the crew was very helpful. |

| I took my Dad on this trip for his birthday last year and we enjoyed it so much that we went again this year. Last year we took the 1:00 sail, this year we took the 11 a.m. sail. I would reccommend the afternoon sail times, there is better wind. The early sail this year didn't have much wind and we were at a standstill at some points.
The trip is quite relaxing and enjoyable but if you want a good ride, go for the afternoon trips when the winds are better! We will happily do this again! |

| My husband and I recently sailed aboard the Adirondack II. Being that we live only 40 minutes away from Newport, we figured it would be a great way to enjoy the ocean and see the familiar sites. We were able to learn alot that we didn't already know about Newport from our knowledgeable captain. We have seen the Newport mansions along Ocean Drive, but it was a great view to see them aboard the sail. A special treat was seeing Norwegian Cruise Line docked nearby. The Adirondack II is well worth the $27 per person charge, and they also have $1.00 soft drinks, beer, and wine. I look forward to returning for another relaxing day sail. |

| The sail on the Adirondack II was beautiful and great fun--it was real sailing on the open waters. I took my 86 year old mother and she loved it!! |

| The sail boat ride was nice, but I wish there had been more of an explanation as to the surroundings. Also, I wish we could have gotten closer to the shore because it was difficult to see the sights that were mentioned from so far out. The crew was very friendly. |

| Three older adults, 2 women, 1 man, ages 55, 59, and 65 agreed that it was one of the best ways to spend a few hours seeing the highlights of the area from the water.
The captain and staff were very polite and knew the history of the shore. ...the weather was ideal for sailing, which helped considerably. Great experience and worth the money. I would consider going again.!! |

| My friend and I had such a great time aboard the boat. It was such a beautiful day out and everyone was very friendly. Comfortable seats and not being overly crowded was also a big contributing factor for why it was such a pleasant experience. The crew was nice and helpful and informative should you have any questions. I would recommend this outting for anyone. |

| Friendly, capable crew and a great sail in a historic boat around Newport Harbor. The boat heels quite a bit in the wind, so don't bring a lot of loose stuff with you. |

| This was a birthday gift for a friend who has always enjoyed sailing. However, it was my first time on a sailboat and we both had a great time. The crew was very friendly, knowledgeable and fun. It was both educational and exciting. We would both do this this again in the future without giving it a second thought! |
