Sensational Sail - Captain Zack did a great job as well as crewmen Michael and Elliott. We got the chance to have a long conversation with Michael (our favorite). He was so easy going and genuine. He honestly acted as though he enjoyed conversing with everyone around us. The sunset was absolutely amazing which made the whole trip worthwhile.

Sunset cruise - The crew was fantastic!! Captain Nicholas was very personable and informative. The deck hands kept our drinks full and was very entertaining. We didn’t have much of a Sunset but the atmosphere and boat ride was so relaxing and fun.

Fun time on a cool sailboat - The captain and crew were very attentive and informative. The sunset was beautiful, the drinks were good and they even gave us a blanket when it got chilly out on the water. I had never been on a sailboat before so this was an exciting and fun experience.

Loved our sunset sail - We loved our sailing experience. Great instructions for booking/checking in. The crew was engaging, informative & helpful. It got pretty windy so they handed out blankets for our comfort. It got cloudy so the sunset was not the best but that didn’t affect our enjoyment. We’d love to do it again!

Dissatisfied.. - I was not happy that they did not allow the option to cancel. It was raining on and off and they hoped themselves that it would not .. they knew it was. They decided to sail any way and it did rain. They sailed 15 minutes late and returned at the scheduled time which means we were shorted 15 min. They should have offered to cancel as an option. The captain captain could speak as he had been difficult to hear the history part of the tour He should have a megaphone type thing to be able to hear him.

Choose a smaller schooner who doesn’t cancel last minute. - They canceled last minute because it was “cold and supposed to rain.” I think they probably didn’t have enough people to make it worth it to sail. We checked the radar and so did the boat next door. We went out on a different schooner instead and it was a beautiful evening with a great sunset. No rain in site and they offered blankets too. Would recommend Olad over appledore instead.
