About
As the land warms up, the sea-breeze kicks in, making for more exciting sailing conditions. Work up your appetite for lunch or dinner with a thrilling sail along the northern tip of Amelia Island and across the Cumberland Sound to spot dolphins, wild horses and other wildlife, or join us for a magical sunset cruise.
Here's the difference between the Sailboat (Monohull) and the Catamaran: A sailboat leans over into the wind and gives that thrilling sensation of sailing motion. A catamaran does not lean at all, and gives a smooth upright ride. There is a trampoline on the front of the catamaran plus seating in the rear. Sailing purists prefer the sailboat.
Make sure you choose that which you would prefer!
