Itinerary
No two sunsets are alike. Let us help you make memories!
After the captain welcomes you aboard we set sail at 6:00 sharp heading north toward Power Island (once owned by Henry Ford). Once sails are up, the first mate will make sure you have your choice of wine, cider, beer, cocktail, or soda while you sit back and relax basking in the ambiance of the evening sun. Visit the classic salon below deck or get comfy on deck as we skim across the brilliant blue-green freshwater of the bay. You’ll enjoy high-end and complimentary refreshments locally sourced from the businesses of Grand Traverse and Leelanau Counties.
The personal touches, intimate environment, and pampering are unparalleled to any other experience on the bay! The panoramic vistas are perfect for elegant and special photo ops. Semi-formal beach attire suggested, but not required.
All of our adventures feature a unique interpretive guide. You’ll learn a bit about sailing, the history of the region, and the ecology of the Great Lakes. We want you to leave us with an appreciation and desire to protect and preserve this precious resource and the features which make the region special.
