Fabulous time--we had great luck

| A family of four, with two college-aged children, we wanted an activity that would allow us to see the Lake, appreciate sailing, and enjoy the weather. The crew were outstanding, as one would expect from their years of experience: competent, informative, welcoming (let the younger kids try their hand at the helm, etc.). We chose the noon-hour cruise (as opposed to the mid-afternoon or evening outings) only on account of our schedule. We motored down the west side of the Lake, then hoisted sail for a point to the southeast, before coming about to return to Tahoe City. The weather was perfect, the scenery sparkling, drinks and snacks plentiful. First mate Greg was attuned to our every need or desire. In fact, the crew's buoyant mood was partly attributable to their own surprise at our good fortune. As we moored again, Greg mentioned that on the noon cruise, there is often very little wind. Frequently the boat has to "motor" for the entire two hours! The pictures and descriptions on the website naturally portray the boat as heeling over in a stiff breeze. Obviously, even those with a little experience, like myself, understand that the weather is not always ideal. But had I known that noon in particular is often a calm period--and this was nowhere hinted in the literature--I would certainly have chosen later in the day. As it was, had we never been able to put up the sail, I would have felt extremely disappointed, not to say defrauded (at $50 a person). Our family had a wonderful time. I can only recommend this, however, with the qualification that you inquire fully about likely conditions. Otherwise, you might come away with a poor taste of sailing, which would be a shame. | ||||||

| The Boat is great, the secenery is amazing and Captain Jim and FIrst Mate Greg did a great job explaining what was going on and providing details of where we were on the lake. We did the noon cruise and lucked out with the winds, thus having a great sail. There were only 14 people on our sail (8 of which were our group). I beleive capacitly is 25 people, which would have been really crowded and uncomfortable. My suggestion - if you can be nimble call the day of and see how full the boat is before you commit. | ||||||

| I would highly recommend the cruise. Nice boat, wonderful scenery. The only critique is that the captain and crew member could engage more with the passengers....like information on the lake, chatting, friendly demeanor.... Don't get me wrong. They were both nice when we engaged them, but they really didn't initiate conversations. Also, one other thing. A quick safety briefing would be valuable. All that said, we loved the cruise. Highlight of our trip. | ||||||

| We have lived in the Sierra Nevada Foothills for more than 20 years. Although we have driven around Lake Tahoe we have never experienced it from the water. This was a fun, well run and safe cruise. I highly recommend it! | ||||||

| The group enjoyed the sailing - lots of excitement for the kids & adults, and good tour information provided by the crew. They were really glad that they chose the sailing trip vs. one of the paddlewheel toursl. This was much more fun ... | ||||||

| How can you have a bad day sailing? It was beautiful, the staff was attentive but laid back. Couldn't have been better! I will definitely do it again on my next trip to Tahoe! | ||||||

Sunset cruise sans Sunset
|

| The evening sailing expedition is described as a sunset cruise on Lake Tahoe. Sunset in the summer happens around 8PM. The cruise started at 5:30PM and was done before 8PM. We expected to be on the water when the sky and the reflection on the water would be filled with sunset colors. Instead, we were back in the car, on our way to dinner. The whole point of doing the cruise was to be on the lake during sunset. We felt very disappointed by this fact. | ||||||

| It was a birthday present for my husband who has always wanted to try sailing. He loved it. The winds were light so most of the time we used the motor. Once in a while the captain would turn the engine off and hoist up the sails. You can walk around the deck. The weather was warm. You didn't need a jacket. It was a great adventure. Everyone in our party loved it. | ||||||

Great fun, great crew, beautiful boat

| A great trip especially going south the boat was laying over but everybody stayed dry. The scenery was great and the crew very amiable and informative. This may become a new birthday tradition. We actually booked a trip for July 2nd but we could not make it. I assumed we were out of luck based on the No Refunds/No Reschedule policy on the web site. Tahoe Sail called us to ask if we were going to show up (15 mins before sail time) and then offered to reschedule a few weeks later, so that was great service on their part. | ||||||

| This was a very relaxing trip. The weather was perfect and the crew was great. Easy to visit with others on the cruise if you choose to. Appetizers were just right. | ||||||

| We had a little bit of car trouble getting to Tahoe but we made it, and we made the Sunset cruise ahead of time. Seating on the boat was good (we weren't cramped), food was good and it was very comfortable out on the lake. The service was welcoming and easy-going. We sat on the heel side of the boat and stretched out and enjoyed the ride. We didn't have a lot of wind so it was a gentle sail for a modest distance. I was hoping we'd go further out in the lake, and I don't know what the normal range is, but given the amount of wind I'm not disappointed. It was a good, relaxing experience ... the views were spectacular and I would recommend to others. We would repeat again someday. | ||||||
