About
We sail every evening May-August from 7:30-9:30 and call it our moonlight cruise. On some of those evenings that’s when the sun is setting, and on some evenings the moon is also visible. Once a month the full moon rises as the sun sets, making being on the water the most magical experience known to any sailor. We depart the dock and go out into the Miles River, put up the sails, and follow the soft evening wind. Champagne and chocolate are complimentary. $95 per person, + tax and tip.
Tour Includes
- Beer, Wine & Champagne, Bottled Water, Soda
