Awesome experience with the family. I loved the emphasis on safety that the captain had. Highly recommend for an afternoon of fun.
Incredible experience sailing in the Boston Harbor for the 250th celebration. Our boys had the opportunity to help the crew raise the sails which was a highlight of the voyage. Captain was fun, engaging and knows the perfect spot for a boat selfie. Highly recommend.
This was a nice sail in the harbor and the crew was top notch. The crew looked after us and made sure we were safe and comfortable and having fun. I think calling this boat a Tall Ship is a bit of a stretch but it was a nice boat and fun to sail on.
Booking online was easy. The crew (Jasper, Jessica & Lauren) was fantastic providing a lovely, entertaining time as we enjoyed a unique view of Boston from the harbor. I would highly recommend this activity.
Thank you for your feedback! So happy to hear that you enjoyed sailing with us..
Not worth the money. Boring. Captain had a difficult time catching the wind so didn’t spend any time commenting on what we were seeing and we didn’t even travel the whole harbor.
The ship was amazing! If you want a boat ride on the Charles River it’s fantastic. However, if you are looking for more of a tour experience where you learn about the buildings and history along the river, this may not be the trip for you. Captain Jack, mate Jack and crew were super nice and friendly and answered all of my questions!
Fiona thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear you enjoyed a nice relaxing sail with us!
Wonderful crew, great scenery! Jasper, Lauren & Logan so knowledgeable & great sailing history knowledge!!
So happy to her you enjoyed your sail with us! Will make sure the crew hears of you feedback.
This was a nice relaxing sail with a very knowledgeable crew. They allowed children to help which was fun.
Thank you very much for your feedback - we will make sure that the crew hears how much you enjoyed yourself!
It was difficult to find where to board…no signs. Woukd be helpful to have a staff person above the platform to direct people. I thought we would sail faster. It was rather boring. If staff are going to be barefoot for their job they should groom their feet.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate hearing about every guest's experience. As a traditional sailing vessel, it is customary for our crew to be barefoot while onboard, as this helps protect the wooden decks and provides better footing while sailing. We understand that this may not be something every guest expects, and appreciate your perspective. We also strive to make boarding and check-in as smooth as possible by providing clear signage and instructions. That said, we recognize that some guests prefer more personal guidance, and we will keep your comments in mind as we continue to evaluate the guest experience. Thank you again for sailing with us, we wish you all the best.
Easy to find location at the seaport. Friendly crew and friendly passengers. We got to help raise the sail. Relaxing trip. Cocktails can be purchased. Lots of boats and sailing ships in the harbor, beautiful scenery. Wear you hat and sunscreen. Great break from all the walking around the city. See the city from a different perspective. Recommend.
Laura thank you so much for your feedback. Yes sunblock is a great suggestion for folks! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed sailing with us.
