Relaxing day on the river!

The boat was great and so was the staff. My only complaint is that there was no comfortable seating. We sat on life jacket cabinets. There were no cushions, no backs. Not so bad for me, but my 85 years old father was very, very uncomfortable.

My second trip. The crew were very knowledgable and friendly. The young lady was very patient with an 8 year olgirl who had many questions. Hopefully, your trip up-river was uneventful and the sails remained on the schooner.

Terrific crew and BEAUTIFUL ride

My husband, son and myself were looking forward to some downtime after spending several days at other area attractions. This was the perfect way to spend a beautiful and hot August day. Captain Greg and his crew, Reid and Devon, made it informative to those of us who never sailed before and SUPER relaxing. We got a prime camera shot of my son at the helm of the ship, which he took with him on his first day back to school. I wasn't sure how much he enjoyed the ride since it was a relaxing 2 hours long. After all, he is 9 years old and that's a long time for an active boy. He shared with me that when he was asked to write a short essay about what he did this summer that he wrote about his time aboard the ship and drew pictures of the jellyfish and crabs he saw at the dock. How's that for an endorsement?

Non-refundable...

I desired to purchase a ticket for a Wednesday 11AM ride but accidently bought for August 25 instead of August 24. The e-mail reservation notice sent after purchase stated that this transaction was non-refundable with no changes permitted...so that was $$ wasted. I did not ride and likely will not try a second time with this kind of ticket purchase policy.

The crew was friendly, the ride was peaceful and scenic, and to top it off dolphins frolicked around the boat once we were out into the water! Just a marvelous experience!

We sailed aboard the schooner Alliance on AUGUST 19, 2011. Captain Greg and his crew were very friendly and knowledgeable,made you feel very welcome aboard the vessel.My mother at 75 years old was over joyed to help hoist the sail.We had a hardy lunch aboard the ship (with an additional cost.) Scenery was beautiful,we even saw dolphins on the return to dock. We had a wonderful trip a big thank you to the captain and crew. THE BOWENS
