About
Join us for your own Private Sunset sail. Perfect for celebrating birthdays, anniversaries, proposals, bachelorette parties, quality family time, and more!
Take your loved one and friends sailing on your own boat with the help of a few crew. If desired, we offer a hands-on learning experience for those who wish to learn about sailing! Unlike many other companies that motor the majority of the time, we pride ourselves on sailing as much as possible.
Want to spend a little extra time on the water? Add an extra hour on to your sail.
For 7-12 guests we offer the opportunity to charter the fleet for a buddy boat sail. We depart at the same time and set sail side-by-side for a once in a lifetime sunset adventure.
