Absolutely terrific experience. Captain Bill made us feel welcome and let me take the helm several times. For me the highlight was my second spell, when we had more wind and we reached 12 knots! Captain Bill talked of the naval battle associated with the Battle of Yorktown and described points of interest. We shared the cockpit with three other adult passengers, congenial people. Will definitely do it again.

We had a great time sailing with Captain Bill! We all got a turn at the helm, then had time to relax while he took the wheel again. Would recommend this experience to anyone looking to spend a day on the water.

This was an amazing adventure with my husband and friends that I strongly recommend for couples looking for a relaxing and entertaining excursion. Captain Bill shared the history of significant revolutionary battles and gave us the experience of sailing at the same time. The river and weather was perfect for sailing and Captain Bill's charming personality made this a memory we will cherish.
