This is a lovely and relaxing sailboat excursion right off of Boston Harbor. The meeting location is a bit hard to find, but you can’t miss the Oyster Bar right next door at the location, where you’ll be able to find the meeting point. The crew was excellent and I’d highly recommend to do this in an afternoon, especially if you spent the morning walking around the city.
The staff was informative answered all questions.. Beautiful boat. Smooth saiing . Allowed participation in sailing
Great time. Jasper our captain and the rest of his crew were awesome. We loved the who experience and we highly recommend it to anyone.
This trip had potential but felt light on substance. We had free time in Boston on a Saturday and booked it as a fun couple outing, but once we saw how many people were being packed onto the boat, we honestly expected an underwhelming experience. Fortunately, there was enough seating for everyone, which was a major plus. The ship itself was cool to see, especially its classic style, but the crew offered little information about it. We picked up a few interesting tidbits, but not nearly as much as I’d expected for the time spent on the water. The harbor view was pleasant, but the crew didn’t share any details about the coastline that I heard. It’s a lovely trip on the water though. The real highlight of the trip was the opportunity for hands-on activity at the beginning. The captain and crew invited volunteers to help get the ship out of port, and we had the delightful opportunity to raise the sails while calling out “HEAVE” and “HO.” Now that’s what I call a great time! I’d love to see this tour offered with a bit more historical flair. I think many people would enjoy learning more about the history of these ships, and even more, the people who lived & worked on them.
crew is great, service is great, my only thing is that boat just circles around harbor between docks and logan, other similar sailing cruises go further pass logan and some islands and then come back which makes it a bit more interesting...
Took a sail with Captain Jasper, Logan and Celia on Fame. What a fantastic way to spend a sunny Boston afternoon! Captain and crew were friendly, entertaining and super knowledgeable about all things Boston and sailing. Would highly recommend!
