5.00The schooner is beautiful! The shipmates work hard to work the sails. It was very interesting to see what all it takes to run a ship. We went in Sept. make sure to dress warm. It was a gorgeous sunny day, but it was cool out on the water. We saw a seal and a couple of porpoises. The captain explained a lot about Lobster fishing. The view of the island from the water was fantastic. We had a great time.
Pleasant sail
