If you want a easy, fun sail with great conversation, this is the charter for you. Both kids are seriously smart too! Be prepared for an in-depth conversation with plenty of solid points and questions, if you wish :-) While I could go on, I'll summarize - just book it. Our last sail was up in the air due to weather until the last minute and Dan was totally cool about playing it by ear. Weather broke and we ended up with a perfect late day sail. It is never crowded once on the water, but that day it was just us out. Magical! Thank you Dan and kids and we will see you next summer. PS Hope that VW restoration is going well!

The cabins are larger (and fewer) with sufficient storage longest (7-day) cruise. Three heads; two with full-size, hot, freshwater, rainfall showers. The galley staff turns out breakfasts to order with plenty of fruits, granola, etc. Lunch, afternoon appetizers and dinners are all excellent. Appetizers and dinner include an appropriate wine pairing. They crew is highly experienced, knows their roles and responsibilities and excels as a team. The vessel is exceptionally well maintained. Few scratches and scuffs; and the brass work gleams.

We have thorougly enjoyed three sails on Ladona and cherish our memories from each adventure.

Just doesn't get any better than this!! Hope to meet you on our next sail!!

My friend and I are celiac and the chef kept us safe. Stunning views and sea breezes galore. You want to do nothing? Find a spot on deck and do nothing. You want to be active?

Tip: arrive 15 to 30 minutes before your sailing time. If you do for some reason arrive late like…read moreus, you will need to contact the company and see if there are any open spots available for the next sailing session. If there is no answer, they do call you back. While you wait there is a bar/restaurant right on the dock, you can relax and hang out on. Parking is limited but can be found outside the docking area along the main street. Onboard: seating is first come first serve. If you prefer to be out in the open, head all the way to the front of the boat. Make sure you grab yourself a small table if you plan to have drinks and oysters. Cash and credit is accepted, pay your tab closer to shore when returning to avoid having to wait for all the others wanting to cash out at the same time. The oysters offered are from 6 different farms. We only liked 1 of them as the others were very briny and salty. Still pretty cool to taste what they offer. Great selection of drinks and local beers. The captain is very nice and super funny, but hard to hear or understand at times. Overall the sail is nice close to full 2hrs and not choppy at all. I wouldn't go more than once, but would try if I'm visiting the town.

We love this! Oysters were so yummy and boat was informative for sure! Wish there were some stops…read moreor more interaction with captain

Your amazing & beautiful boat and perfectly crafted cruise shifted us entirely away from the habitual stressors of our lives. The beauty of the Maine coastline and being taken care of by your amazing crew (our Captain Hans, Deck-hand Miles, and Chef Levin), who were all hardworking, talented and a pleasure to spend time with. They Worked hard all day long, clearly knew what they were doing, shared the load, while enjoying every moment. As we watched their skills in action keeping your fabulous Windjammer upwind from our comfortable deck chairs, we delighted in the fresh sea breezes, and enjoyed the delicious and creative menu, which was unexpectedly luxurious.

The beautiful islands he took us to, his lively, humourous local and historical commentary along the way, his willingness to fine tune the experience based upon our own specific interest made our trip absolutely fantastic.

He is a lovely, fun, lively person who made the beauty around us feel all the more special. SueAnne Piliero

Not only did we enjoy our time together, but had an opportunity to meet some wonderful people, made new friends, and reconnected, which brought us back to a time when we all sailed together as a family when we were young! Whether you are a seasoned sailor or new to sailing altogether, the Angelique Windjammer Cruise will bring you into a new world! I would recommend this experience to everyone!!
