Escape the everyday and indulge in a relaxing 6-hour private sailing experience aboard the classic sail yacht Scout! We'll set sail in the spectacular waters of Grand Traverse Bay, offering breathtaking views and unforgettable moments. Once we leave the dock, you'll have the opportunity to participate in raising Scout's sails. As the engine quiets and the wind fills the canvas, feel the exhilaration of gliding silently across the water under wind power alone. Whether you prefer to soak it all in from a comfortable vantage point, simply enjoying the scenery and fresh air, or want to actively participate in sailing the vessel, the choice is yours. Assist the crew with the lines, learn about sailing techniques, or even take a turn at the helm if conditions allow. This is your chance to experience the magic of sailing firsthand!

Q&A

Q: Is there an age limit for kids to go on this sailing trip?

A: Kids are definitely welcome on the yacht! There's no strict age limit, but I'd say it’s best for kids who are at least 6-7 years old since they can enjoy the experience more. Just make sure they can follow safety instructions. Also, the crew is really great with kids!

Q: What happens if the weather is bad on the day of the sailing?

A: If the weather doesn't cooperate, the crew will usually contact you the day before to reschedule. They want to ensure everyone's safety and enjoyment, so it’s super flexible! Just keep an eye on the forecast leading up to your sail.

Q: What should I wear for this sailing trip? Is it chilly on the water?

A: Definitely layer up! It can get chilly out there, especially if you're sailing early in the morning or later in the evening. A light jacket or windbreaker is a good call, plus don't forget some comfy shoes. Avoid flip-flops for safety!

Thinking about gifting the private sailing experience on Grand Traverse Bay!

Hey everyone! I'm considering gifting the 6-hour private sail experience aboard Yacht Scout for my partner’s birthday. We both love the water, and I think it’ll be an unforgettable day! Just curious if anyone here has done it? What were your favorite parts? Also, is it easy to help out with sailing or just purely relaxing?

Anyone experienced the sailing trip? Got tips?

I’m looking into this 6-hour sail trip for a group outing. Sounds awesome, but any tips for beginners? I’ve never sailed before and not sure what to expect! There's a lot going on, and I don't wanna feel lost during the trip.
