Disapointed!
Tue, Jul 3, 07   7:00 PM lmm092667 Female 30-39 Local Family With Children
My husband, mother and my teenage daughter and I chose to take a sunset sail on board the Adirondack II. The boat was beautiful and the crew were nice and helpful. I was slightly disappointed with the course we took as I felt we did nothing more than sail back and forth from Fort Adams to the Newport Bridge. My family and I envisioned a peaceful, quiet sunset sail and got nothing of the sort. Just before we were to set sail the captain announced that we were waiting for a few more guests who had purchased tickets but were late. A few minutes later 3 very noisy people boarded. One of the woman (once they were done laughing and talking very loudly) annouced that we should all sing happy birthday to her husband once he arrived on the boat as it was his 40th birthday. The rest of the passengers just kind of looked at her as it was apparent that she had been drinking heavily. A few minutes later the other 7 members of their party arrived even louder and more boisterous than the first. The 10 member party spent the entire sail yelling, laughing, drinking and just being downright obnoxious. It was awful. The Captain never once asked them to be quiet or anything. They kept getting in the way of the crew trying to raise and lower the sails. They had trays of cheese, crackers and jam which they were passing around and which one of them ended up dumping on the deck of the boat. And somehow they found that amusing also. We paid $148.00 to be totally annoyed for 1.5 hours. We were terribly disappointed and feel that we did not get what we paid for.

Dissatisfied
Tue, Jul 3, 07   7:00 PM verybusy45 Female 60-69 Local Family With Children
As far as the boat and crew I was very happy but I wasn't happy with the fact that there was a roudy bunch of adults that came on board at the last minute and were loud during the whole cruse. You could tell they had been drinking and kept drinking while on board, they were so loud you would have thought they were the only ones on the ship. My family and I were uncomfortable and I don't know if we would take another curse.

Very Relaxing; Great Views

Great views that locals often either take for granted or forget are so close to them. It was nice to say to that we live in such a beautiful state.

Lovely scenic sailing
Mon, Jul 2, 07   3:00 PM angelamarcom Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
We sailed on a day cruise. It was scenic, relaxing and enjoyable. Our two year old daughter was with us and she had a nice time as well. The captain was excellent and handled the ship with ease. The sailing was smooth. Several points of interest were easily seen on the cruise and I would definately recommend it.

Family of 4 Cruised - Pros' and Con's
Mon, Jul 2, 07   3:00 PM emily2000 Male 30-39 Local Family With Children
:-) Pro's - We loved the cruise. The kids were able to drive the boat. It was a highlight for them. There were only 5 kids on board. It left promptly, be there on time. The crew were very helpful and courtious. Water was complimentary. Cons - We couldn't hear the captain. We missed a lot of history and info. We sat in the middle of the boat. Be sure to get there eaIrly and sit very close to the captain. The boat did not have any music on board. If you can't hear the captain anyway some music would have been enjoyable. :-)

We great weather and that certainly helped. The boat was beautifully appointed and spacious. The crew was delightful, attentive and pleasant. Captain Andy was knowledgeable and confident. This was a splendid outing and great way to get to know the town of Newport.

Had a really great time!!

This was a very nice trip, we really enjoyed the ride. We took a trip during the tall ships festival, which made it even more interesting to see the harbor. I recommend sitting close to the Captain steering the ship, he was very knowledgeable and had some really interesting facts about the area and attractions. It does cost a decent amount for just an hour and a half, but for someone visiting or just a nice time to sail around it is defiantly worth it.

More information about Newport and the sites

Generally it was a very enjoyable sail. It would have been nice if the crew described the sites and surroundings of Newport as we sailed past them. Thanks

I would and have recommended this to many friends. I will book another evening on the Adirondack II before summers end. Crew is extremely friendly and answered many questions while aboard.

What a great evening!!
Sun, Jun 24, 07   7:00 PM mattk97 Male 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
This was one of the highlights of our trip, Captain Andy and his crew took care of us right from the beginning with sharing some stories about the area before we got the sails up. It was an awesome experience sailing around the harbor seeing things you can't see from land. I would highly reccomend this to anyone.
