The crew was friendly and well-informed, but safety measures were inadequate. On a very windy day, life jackets were not provided, which concerned me for my six-year-old. Midway through, a sudden wind gust caused our boat to tilt dangerously, resulting in one passenger being hurled across the boat, breaking her arm and nearly falling into the water. She was soaked and panicking, prompting us to return to shore immediately. Had I not been securely holding my child, it could have been a horrifying experience. What should have been a leisurely two-hour boat ride turned into a frightening ordeal for my family. I cannot recommend this for kids at all.
We had an amazing time! The crew was incredibly friendly, and the beauty of Portland Harbor was breathtaking. It was our first experience on a schooner, and it certainly met our expectations.
Dress warmly during this season! It was a very enjoyable and relaxing journey around the bay. The crew provided great insights about the area.
The crew and captain were extremely welcoming, contributing to a fun atmosphere. The scenery was stunning, and I even got to help with raising the sail, which added to the overall enjoyment of the trip.
This experience was disappointing as it was merely a boat ride without any narration. I anticipated commentary about the area, but instead it felt like a straightforward trip with a request for tips. There were no food or drinks offered, but we were allowed to bring our own.
A wonderful and tranquil escape from the usual hustle and bustle. This sail doesn't involve a lot of talking, which is a refreshing change. I highly recommend it.
We thoroughly enjoyed this excursion. The weather was ideal, and although we had to wait a bit longer than anticipated to board the boat, the pleasant conditions made it forgivable. The friendly and accommodating staff created a welcoming atmosphere. The relaxed pace of the experience added to our enjoyment. I highly recommend this excursion for anyone looking to have fun right after disembarking from the cruise ship.
We enjoyed a lovely day out on the water. The schooner was manned by a talented crew, and we soaked in the beautiful views of the bay. It was a wonderfully relaxing experience.
I had a fantastic time with the captain and crew. It was great to assist in raising the sails, and seeing Portland and the lighthouses from the water was beautiful.
It was quite chilly for most of the trip, but the views were stunning. We spotted a few seals and gained more knowledge about Portland. Overall, it was a fantastic experience.
