No two Grand Traverse Bay afternoons are alike! Sit back, relax, and sail with the Captain and Crew across the brilliant blue waters of West Bay. The Wind Dancer Happy Hour Sail runs Wednesday - Saturday. If you would prefer to sail on a private charter, we invite you to contact to discuss options. Every afternoon offers up unique skies and breezes that tantalize the senses. Experience the magic of hearing only wind and water as the Crew proudly keeps the engine turned off and the sails full.

We had 4 couples for a fun cocktail cruise. Capt Nate and Chris treated us great…their drinks were plentiful and the sail was fun! (Try the signature Cherry Whisky Sours!). Perfect amount of time on the water. Fun sail! Thx for a great time!

The crew on the Wind Dancer provided a well thought out trip through the bay with great scenery, good beverage selection from local wineries and breweries, as well as some small bites which were also locally sourced. It was very relaxing to coast through the water and hear the sails in the wind. My wife an I were accompanied by around 15 others so it made for a pretty intimate and personalized experience.
