We ended up really enjoying the tour and would highly recommend to visitors. This would especially be a great thing to add to your itinerary if you're only in the city for a short time, as you get to see a lot of landmarks in a short time. You also get to hear about the city's history and key industries. The ride overall is pretty smooth, and my husband, who gets motion sickness, was totally fine. The boat when docked can experience a little more motion, however, so your mileage may vary. We also found it easy to get seats with good views, and the guides were easy to hear anywhere on the boat. The crew were friendly and engaging, and Angelo and the other staff were very kind to us when my husband and I mentioned we were celebrating our anniversary.

The ship promptly left dock at designated time. The top deck had open view. The second level had enclosed area with glass window views. Also both ends were open to guests as well. From start to end, the staff member did an amazing job of narrating many aspects of the views from the deck. A lot of it was about the downtown Seattle buildings, Space Needle, buildings and parks by the shore, the sea ports and many other cool facts along the way. I throughly enjoyed the hour long tour. The weather was also fantastic to take stunning pictures of the downtown, the mountains and the port. They also had a bar in second level where they served alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages, pop corn and some small snacks. Prices were decent for it being a tourist activity. We liked both popcorn and the strawberry lemonade.

Derek allowed everyone (who wanted to) to play a part in the sailing experience by pulling the lines and steering the craft (at least long enough to take a FB profile photo).

I'm looking forward to my next visit!

It's a pristine sail ship owned, maintained and operated by two of the best lady sailors. Tami's a 20 year boat caption and Claudette is an acute sailor and certified nurse. It was a gracious, informative tour of the bay with warmth, safety & genuine comradery. They actually extended our time just because they're passionate about what they do. In this day of making a dime, it was a breath of fresh air to meet such qualified warm professionals whose passion is to share and make you smile. We couldn't have been in better hands and will travel with you again. So happy to hear they have extended their excursions to Poulsbo to service the lively downtown arena. If you want a qualified experience, I highly suggest traveling with this crew & company. Thank you for a truly wonderful & unique experience. TK 'Terri' Jones & Jon Richardson

Tami, We want to…read morethank you for a delightful long weekend celebration of our 19th wedding anniversary. Looking for an unusual get-away, we found it with your Boat and Breakfast, complete with a sail on your beautiful classic wooden boat. Moored on the quiet side of Eagle Bay Harbor, it was so peaceful and restful to watch the boats and ferries pass in the distance, the full moon rise over the water, and we could even see the Space Needle from our deck! The boat was our hide-away and so comfortable to return to after exploring Bainbridge Island, the lovely town of Winslow, and walking in the magnificent Grand Forest. Our memories of this celebration will be with us forever. Thanks to the "all gal crew" who gave us a pleasant sail ~ and even let us take a turn at the wheel. Lynn & Bud

We went on a rainy cooler day and we had the best time. The boat ride alone was super fun and i had a perma smile the whole time. You can really tell that Mike and Sarah have a passion for sharing this experience with others. They also emailed us pics from our adventure. Thanks again Mike and Sarah and we hope to see you soon.
