The whole experience was amazing. The water was beautiful as well as the sun setting. Would do it again 100 more times. Wonderful evening!

The captain was so knowledgeable and the sailboat was perfect for our birthday celebration. Perfect way to watch the sunset

Cruise on Chesapeake

Mike_W, Aug 2022

This was really fantastic. Normally there is a minimum number who have to take the cruise, but Caleb was nice and said they were still going to go out. They asked that you arrive 15 minutes before voyage time, but while I was talking to him, he said if you want to come now we'll go out when you get here. So accomodating, so it was just the two of us, my wife and myself and the crew. Once on board Dylan and our Captain Andy provided a lot of background and history. It was really a nice time out, and Andy let my wife be the skipper for a while. It was really relaxing and fun. Would highly recommend. Oh and don't forget to tip!

Thanks for your review. We enjoyed having you aboard. Thanks for booking with us and thank you for your business.

Nice ride across the bay....

Thomas_C, Aug 2022

Nice ride across the bay. The pilot, Andy, obviously knows his stuff and had a wealth of fascinating sailing stories.. The crewman, Dylan, was a very cool young man, full of information. This was one of the highlights of our trip to the D.C. area.

Response from Host, Nov 2022

Thomas, thank you for your review. We are honored to be considered as one of your highlights on your trip to our nation's capital. We look forward to having you back with us in the future. Thanks for sailing with us.
