Classic 3-Hour Tour: $400 Glide down the channel enjoying the sights, marine life and serenity of sailing with Lively and her captain acting as your private guides to the beautiful waters of Newport! You can sit back and enjoy the sights of the harbor or learn how to handle Lively's sails and tiller. Feel the wind in your hair as you glide down the channel, take in the sights of celebrity homes, historic landmarks and fascinating marine life. Our Vessel is a 1976 Willard Marine custom schooner. She was designed by Hale Field and constructed at Willard Boat Works in Costa Mesa. She has spent most of her life in Newport Harbor, occasionally venturing up or down the coast to cruise or participate in the America's Schooner Cup which she won in 2016. She is a dream to sail and flies up to four sails at a time: a Marconi-rigged mainsail, a gaff-rigged foresail, a jib on a self-tending boom, and a fisherman staysail. Her auxiliary propulsion is a 30 horsepower Yanmar inboard engine. Down below she has a dinette table that seats four comfortably, a small galley (kitchen) with an icebox, and a head (restroom).
