My husband and I took our 3 children (ages 13, 7, and 5) on this cruise and had a wonderful time! The captain and his crew were experienced and obviously enjoyed what they were doing. They were full of knowledge and history about the area, and willingly answered all of our questions. They were patient with our children and let them both sail the ship and taught them to tie knots. The scenery was beautiful, as is the Schooner Alliance. It was a lovely way to spend an evening and is well worth the money.

It was a very enjoyable 2 hours.....very calm and quiet...maybe too quiet for our very lively grandsons.....I was unaware that there was real food and just not snacks on the boat and thought that the only real food available was in the box lunch....The boys would have been very happy with a hot dog..a good trip but.a bit $$$.....Fine crew...very pleasant...

Short on History

Although the ride was pleasant, it could have been so much better if the crew had some historical knowledge of the area. The crew was young and did a good job of keeping us safe from the moving sails. With two hours, they could have made this a memorable experience. For me, it was just an expensive boat ride.

Very enjoyable and relaxing sail

We very much enjoyed our sail on the Alliance. The crew was extremely friendly and the ship clean. We sailed on time and were briefed on the safety measures. It was a very hot day and the crew made sure we were as comfortable as we could be. John was a very friendly young man and I was impressed how easily he spoke to adults as a 16 year old. We loved seeing the dolphins jump. It was peaceful sailing and even my 17 year old sons thought it was pretty cool! I would like to return some day and take the sunset cruise!

The sail was well organized with extras, like, grilled hot dogs, informative captain's discussion with passengers, beautiful sunset from the water and freedom to walk around the boat. The crew allowed participation by the passengers to set the sails. Overall a perfect sail.

Thoroughly Enjoyable

Although the weather was unbearably hot, the cruise was wonderful. The Alliance is beautifully kept, the crew informative, and the scenery interesting. A school of dolphins appeared on cue and added to the view. This trip is well worth the cost.

Excellent-wonderful box lunch!
Tue, Jul 20, 10   11:00 AM mizpatty Female 60-69 Local Family With Children
Wonderful experience. Lovely sail. Interesting passangers. Box lunches were wonderful. Seats a little hard. Would have hated to have had more than 25 people on board. Captain was a bit brusk with my grandchildren. His wife had a wonderful way with people. Unfortunately, he seemed a bit irritated from the git go. Mary Higgins

Stormy weather delayed departure, however, staff was very accomodating and allowed us to be in contact if the schooner would depart. Staff helpful and answered all questions.
