We had a wonderful time and the crew was really nice. The trip was very relaxing and the weather was beautiful. This was the end of summer vacation for all of our 3 couples and we really enjoyed it. Thanks for the hospitality.

A Great Time

Beautiful weather on a masterfully crafted schooner. Captain Eric provided entertaining information about the ship and the life of the modern sailor. The detailed woodwork and beautiful flooring in the galley make the ladder stairwell worth the trip below. This is a highly enjoyable cruise if you are looking for beautiful skies and scenic vistas uninterrupted by the constant drone of canned narration about what happened here and there. We highly recommend this cruise if you prefer a low-key, natural setting. No raucus party music ... Just the symphonic sounds of ship playing in the waves. It was not over-crowded. We've participated in similar outings elsewhere and this was by far the best.

We only sailed around the river very close to the docking point for the entire 2 hours. Not going anywhere was a disappointment. The crew was wonderful and the weather was perfect.

This tour left me wanting even more of the sailing experience. The crew was great and the Alliance is a beautiful gaff-rigged schooner.

Our trip was so much fun.

My husband and I were celebrating our 56th anniversary and I thought this would be a fun thing to do. The weather turned bad on our day to go on the schooner, but cleared off just in time for us to go. The ladies who "manned" the sails were amazing, especially the 16-year-old who was beyond amazing. This was her first year at this job and she was great. I have told my friends about this trip and put pictures on facebook. A couple of friends have already said they would like to go and I hope they will follow up and take this cruise. I would certainly recommend this fun cruise. It was great!
