Fairhaven/New Bedford - Sail Buzzards Bay in a Classic Sloop!

I recently had the pleasure of sailing with Captain Freddie on his boat for a surprise two-hour cruise with my girlfriend, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped aboard, we were treated to breathtaking views of Buzzard's Bay and a sense of tranquility that only the open water can offer. The scenic beauty of the surroundings was truly stunning, and we found ourselves captivated by the serene atmosphere that only a sailboat can provide. Freddie was an absolute delight and contributed significantly to the enjoyment of our trip. His friendly and attentive personality put us at ease, and his passion for sailing was evident throughout the journey. He told us all about his restoration of his boat and made sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. We knew nothing about sailing, and he explained all about how the sails work, answered my endless questions, and his expertise and seamanship were evident. We felt completely safe under his guidance. The overall experience was nothing short of magical. From the sunshine and fresh air to laughing and relaxing on the deck while Freddie told us all about the area and his tales of trips to Martha's Vineyard and beyond. I scored some serious romance points with my lady by booking this trip. I would 100% sail with Captain Freddie again without hesitation.

We enjoyed a fun and relaxing boat ride with Capt Charles out of Newport. Boat was comfortable and spacious for our group of six. We learned a lot, saw some great local sites, and enjoyed the narration and stories Captain shared. Stopping in Jamestown to grab ice cream was a treat as well!

I would highly recommend taking a cruise with Captain Charles. We went with our friends to celebrate my wife’s birthday and are very thankful we booked this trip. Captain Charles’ 2 hour trip around the harbor gave us the perfect amount of time to see the entire harbor and Captain Charles gave us some great information along the way. It’s also very nice to have a boat with a good amount of shade and bathroom, the 6 of us were very comfortable on our trip and I could not recommend it enough.

Charlie and his wife were fantastic. Very professional, very knowledgeable and incredibly warm and inviting. They were especially awesome with our two little girls, with lots of extras for the girls to enjoy. The boat was great. Spacious and even bigger with more seating than in pictures. Would 100% book with them again!
