Beautiful boat but it was a very slow sail. I was waiting to get started and maybe help out but no just a lot of sitting .

Hello, thank you for your feedback. I am disappointed that we didn't meet your expectations. She is a beautiful boat. Thank you! Sailing a schooner requires adjustment to the wind and yesterday was a calmer day on the water. I so wish that we could control the wind and weather! I hope you enjoyed the beautiful views on the majestic Grand Traverse Bay during your sail.

My daughter Deborah really wanted to take a trip on the lake with Wind Dancer. I was not as excited as she was…but I decided to take her for a graduation gift. It was wonderful!!! I would definitely recommend it and next time will take the sunset sail.

Great time. The crew was exceptional with service and knowledge. Food was great, best chicken sandwich I’ve ever had! Very enjoyable day. My daughters are hard to find activities they both like and this seemed to be it. If we come back to the area, we will book this again!
