Traverse City Private Yacht Sailing Experience

Escape the everyday and indulge in a relaxing 6-hour private sailing experience aboard the classic 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!
