Pat 2 Tour Boat
Discover the beauty of Keuka Lake from the water while enjoying curated local wine tastings aboard Vintage Cruises' Pat 2 Tour Boat. A perfect blend of scenery, relaxation, and flavor, this experience offers a unique perspective on the Finger Lakes.
Pat 2 Tour Boat operates in Hammondsport, New York, offering guided boat trips on Keuka Lake aboard the historic Pat II, a beautifully restored 39’ launch boat. The business presents three primary experiences: the 90 Minute Private Charter, Vintage Cruises featuring four curated wine selections, and the limited-time Legends & Lore Tour held at Taylor Winery for three days only.
Each experience is designed to highlight distinct elements of the Finger Lakes region. The 90 Minute Private Charter provides a personalized cruise with narration about the lake's history, local wine culture, and aviation heritage tied to Hammondsport. Vintage Cruises combine scenic lake time with four curated selections from local vineyards. The Legends & Lore Tour is a specialty walking tour at Taylor Winery that focuses on historic tales and local ghost stories during its scheduled dates.
Reservations are recommended because trips depart from Hammondsport and operate with limited passenger capacity on the 39’ launch. Pat 2 Tour Boat works with local vineyards and Taylor Winery for curated tastings and the Legends & Lore event. Information on trip availability, group sizing, and scheduling is provided through the business's booking channel. Pat 2 Tour Boat appeals to visitors seeking a curated Keuka Lake experience that blends lake cruising, regional wine tasting, and local history in Hammondsport.
