I booked the 5 hour sail with my husband, two school age sons and I last minute. We loved it. We sailed to Power Island and swam, ate on the boat and then sailed back. Our boys were initially nervous but had a great time. Highly recommend!

My husband and I decided to take a sunset cruise for our anniversary weekend and we couldn't have made a better decision. Neither of us had been on a sailboat before and Captain Loren made us comfortable. It was such a relaxing experience with perfect weather and breathtaking views!

Very easy to book, such a lovely evening on the bay with Captain Loren at the helm. Very safe, beautiful experience. Perfect for 1 or 2 couples; easy conversation with Captain Loren about his boat, sailing, the bay and more!

This is our 3rd year booking a trip with Wind Sailing and we have the best time every year! We have sailed with Captain Ian and Captain Loren and you can’t go wrong with either. Both captains are helpful, knowledgeable and fun. It’s basically guaranteed to be the most relaxing day of your year. Highly recommend!
