Nice cruise, but missing info on historic sites in the bay.
We thought there would be some narration regarding historic sites while on the cruise and there was none. The Capt and crew were fine and friendly, but why not explain some of the sites in the harbor.

Afternoon cruise
Great crew to take an authentic tall ship out to see Boston from the water. The ship was comfortable and a fun excursion that allowed participation to hoist the masts and sail. Captain jack was great!

Cool, but hoping for more of a guided tour experience
The tall ship experienced was really cool, friendly, safety-consciencious crew. My one gripe; I was expecting more of a guided tour with details about the Boston Harbor. While the crew was knowledgable when asked, there was no official time for them to share history or info.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the experience was not quite what you were expecting. Our sailing is designed to be a relaxing, sailing experience aboard our schooner rather than a guided or narrated tour, We understand that guests may be looking for different things from their time on the water, and we appreciate you giving us the opportunity to clarify what we offer.

A lovely schooner and experience, well worth it!
What a fantastic experience!! The crew were phenomenal and Captain Jack was hilarious! The tour we were on was about 2.5 hours long and such a relaxing experience. We got to see the lovely waters of the harbor and the planes arriving and departing overhead since the airport is right there. I absolutely love boat tours and this was one of my favorites! The boat, itself, was absolutely beautiful and very clearly extremely well maintained. I also loved the fact that unlike a lot of other boat tours, this was a small group of people since the vessel is smaller, which made it that much more enjoyable. Additionally, everyone got to have a view of the waters without having to fight over it at all. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Boston!
