Well I was 3 minutes late and was left. I texted the host that I will be running a few minutes late and I got no response. This was the last event of my trip and it was so incredibly disappointing to be left.

Julie, thank you for booking a cruise with us. We are sorry that you were not able to make it for your original departure. However, it appears that we were able to accommodate you on another sunset trip that departed shortly after the one you had booked, which is not mentioned in your review. Regarding the original trip, we are unfortunately not able to hold the boats for late arrivals. Often times, late arrivals claim to be a few minutes away when in reality they are much further than that. Or they go the wrong way once they do arrive and get delayed even further. Or they were using the wrong destination for the estimate. There is no way we can evaluate these claims to know how long it will will really take someone to arrive. Imagine being a passenger that has arrived on time, and the crew tells you that we are going to wait 5 minutes for someone that is running late. Then imagine that the 5 minutes stretches to 10 minutes and then 15 minutes with no one arriving while you are just sitting at the dock. Finally, the boat departs, and everyone who arrived on time has lost a significant portion of the underway portion of their trip. Maybe the late arrival shows up 18 minutes late just to see the boat pulling away. Now, all the passengers on the boat and the person that was late are all upset. We cannot add time to the end of the trip because we have another departure afterwards, and many of our guests have time-sensitive plans immediately after the trip. We do suggest that all of our guests arrive early to avoid this situation, and we feel bad for everyone that misses their cruise, but I hope the above scenario helps to clarify that the only way we can operate is to depart on time. - Classic Harbor Line

What a wonderful experience. The crew and captain on the schooner were very friendly, knowledgeable and were circulating the whole time to answer question, take pictures and talk about what we were seeing. The Schooner was amazing, perfect for a small group tour. It was the sunset cruise and I would highly recommend it and this ship and crew, Classic Harbor Line.

I had a great time despite the never ending rain. I would suggest this trip for people that want a small group experience. The views were great. I would definitely do this again.
