Highlights

Outing Highlights

THE ROUTE

Cape Vincent Shore Time

The extended full-day itinerary places Cape Vincent within reach for an afternoon of shopping and lunch or dinner, turning a day at sea into a mixed sail-and-shore experience.

THE SAIL

More Time Under Sail and at Anchor

This longer charter prioritizes lengthy passages under sail plus relaxed anchor stops — more uninterrupted time aboard the boat to soak up wind and water.

THE EXPERIENCE

A Private, Tailored Day Afloat

Operated as a private full-day charter, the trip is designed to be tailored to your party — bring snacks, music and personal comforts to shape your ideal day on the water.

What the day feels like

What the Day Feels Like

Expect a measured, leisure-forward rhythm: morning boarding and departure from Sackets Harbor, extended passages under sail with time to relax on deck, one or more anchor stops for swimming or lounging, and an afternoon run into Cape Vincent for food and shopping before returning. The emphasis is on more time sailing and more time ashore than a typical short cruise.
