Experience guided sailing and team-building from Flowery Branch, Georgia — no prior sailing experience required.
The Crossbones Company is a Flowery Branch, Georgia-based operator offering guided sailing experiences on Lake Lanier. The company runs three core offerings: an 8-hour Retreat Day that blends outdoor adventure with personal discovery using The North Star Guidebook, a three-hour Public Sail where participants can raise the sails and navigate with no experience necessary, and Private Sails that are customized for couples, parties, or corporate team-building.
Each experience emphasizes active participation: Retreat Day places guests in the role of crew members to practice teamwork, decision-making, and goal-oriented tasks while exploring Lake Lanier. Public Sails provide a social, hands-on three-hour outing where guests may bring their own snacks and drinks and contribute to a meaningful cause that supports those in need through the retreat program. Private Sails offer exclusive cabin space for belongings and flexible itineraries—whether a calm beach day or an adventurous sail.
