My fiancé and I had an exceptional time aboard this sailing ship. I would highly recommend this experience to people who love being out on the water. The beauty lives up to expectations and you won’t regret it. The staff were exceptionally trained and personable. The drinks were very moderately priced and the experience was top notch.

Unfortunately our sail was cancelled due to weather, but I was impressed that I received a call directly from Windjammer to inform me of the decision to cancel the sunset trip. They assured me they would refund the 3rd party I booked through within a few hours, and said if that company delayed my refund that they would help to work it out. Great customer service in a situation beyond their control. The kind of company I like to work with!
