Thanks for a Great Season!

It’s hard to believe it has all come to end. Our last day of sailing for the 2011 season is this Sunday, October 23rd. The last trip of the day will be 12:30 p.m.

We just wanted to thank you all for making this year so amazing! We have broken lots of records, and had lots of fun. Thank you for all of your support and friendships, new and old.

We hope that you have a great winter and we are already looking forward to starting back up again in the spring. Enjoy your holiday season and we will see you in May!

Make use of our 25th Anniversary Sale, and buy tickets online today!

We are celebrating 25 years of sailing in Camden, Maine and we would love for you to join in the celebration. We are offering a discount of $2.50 per ticket, when ordered online now through the end of the season.

The leaves are starting to turn their beautiful shades of red, orange, and yellow, which only makes the vista more irresistible as we sail through Penobscot Bay. Always beautiful, the sights are truly stunning during the fall foliage season. If you haven’t seen the changing leaves from the harbor before, you won’t want to miss out.

We have one last Full Moon Sail for this season, on Wednesday, October 12 from 4:30 – 6:30 pm. This is one of our most popular special events, as the sunset meets the moonrise and we return to the harbor as twilight descends. Bring some hot toddies or hot cider to make the evening extra cozy!

Come see the Fall Foliage and Celebrate our 25th Anniversary!

The leaves are just starting to change, and the air is getting crisp and cool. This is my favorite time of year in general, and an especially great time to be sailing!

We are still celebrating our 25th anniversary of sailing in Camden harbor, so if you book online you will receive $2.50 off per ticket.

6th Annual Full-Day Sail!!

Submitted by aaron207 on Wed, 2011-09-07 09:50.

The crew and I were talking about it just the other day, even on our regular 2-hour trips, we’ve been making it a little further out than we normally get to: plain and simple, the fall sailing breezes are here! People always ask us why we do the all-day sail in September. Truthfully, the days are just as warm, but we get a much a bigger breeze. In the last five years, I’ve been all over the place with our all-day sails. That extra breeze really helps us see a huge chunk of Penobscot Bay. I’ve never repeated the same route twice on this sail. I wake up that morning and check what the wind is doing, and try to pick the most magical place out on the Bay that I haven’t seen in years—since the time I sailed boats as a hobby.

These trips are such an incredible opportunity to get an up-close look at the island communities, with their busy, working harbors. We always see multiple lighthouses on this trip, which is pretty exciting. On the two-hour sails we don’t usually get to see more than one, so it is truly a treat. Once we get over two hours away, we start to see the remote locations that are featured on so many postcards, that you normally don’t get the chance to see because it’s so far out to sea.
