Wonderful Adventure - We had a wonderful experience on the Schooner. The captain and crew were very helpful and friendly. The captain was extremely friendly and great with the kids who wanted to steer the ship. I enjoyed the short Great Lakes history lesson too.

I would have given 5... - I would have given 5 stars if the captain or crew had used a microphone to give more narration throughout the cruise about Traverse Bay and Traverse City. It would have made the cruise more interesting.
