It’s was a beautiful sail. Our captain and crew was exceptional. The only complaint I have is that I didn’t not know to bring our own snacks to go with our drinks.
This is my 5th time sailing with this company. Eric and his crew were incredible. We had a serene sunset sail in a light breeze up to Dorchester Bay and back. Next time I am in Boston I will be back sailing on Adirondack III
Truly a dreamy experience! The crew is so kind & accommodating. Celebrated my friend’s birthday and she LOVED it. Would recommend 10000%.
Beautiful sunset cruise out of Boston Harbor. This is not a guided tour nor narration, but the crew is open and available for questions. Drinks available for sale onboard. Crew was gracious, knowledge and friendly. If you want a good seat be in line early, I cant imagine there was a bad seat on board, but seating was filled. Consider bringing binoculars to get a good view. Loved Captain Eric and crew John, Kira and Joe. Cost $79.00 a person was well worth it.
Boat Tour was an amazing experience! 2 hrs is perfect. The weather was great and attention to detail was awesome

Captain Dante and crew had a beautiful evening for sailing. Just enough wind to be able to shut the motor off and sail! Plenty of room for all. The beautiful schooner was clean and comfortable. The crew were cheerful, friendly, and efficient in service and in engaging with those on board. If you enjoy sailing, this is the cruise for you. The price is appropriate for the 2 hour sail. We will go again on another perfect sailing day.
