A relaxing sail around the bay - This was a nice sailing experience! The captain and crew were very nice. If you have not experienced a schooner I would recommend this! They do just circle around the main part of the bay and although their website does highlight that you will see wildlife, it is highly unlikely to see any seals or get up close to the land on any part of the Bay tour.

Everything I hoped for! - It was everything I hoped for!!! The captain and crew were very friendly and knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. The boat was not too crowded. The sailing itself was so quiet and peaceful and being inside the bay meant the water wasn't too rough. Would highly recommend it!!

Great view of Portland harbor - Crew did a great job of socializing with the riders and offering interesting information about the boat and their own path.

Relaxing cruise in the harbor - Beautiful and relaxing time on the water. It was a very mellow experience which made the setting even more enjoyable. The crew was friendly and accommodating and the boat was well maintained too.

It is smooth sailing,... - It is smooth sailing, mild waves in the bay. And the crew, Noah, Lucas and Kyle made sure that the passengers were safe and comfortable. Impromptu history lessons were very much appreciated.

Disappointing. - Disappointing. We just sailed back and forth in the harbor. I thought we would at least travel up and down the coast. Would not recommend.

Not for kids!! - The crew was gracious and knowledgeable, but safety was lacking. It was an extremely windy day and they did not offer life jackets, which gave me pause for my six year old. Half way through, we caught a “rogue” wind gust which caused our boat to turn completely sideways and almost tip. One of the passengers went flying, breaking her arm and almost falling in. She was drenched and in distress, causing us to immediately return to shore. Had I not been holding tight onto my child, it would have been a terrifying situation. What was intended to be a two hour casual boat ride ended up being an extremely scary situation for my family. I would not recommend this for children whatsoever.
