We are an intimate 6 passenger vessel, making your sail a more private experience.

While there may be several other people on your trip there is plenty of room to lounge about or you can sit with the crew and help us sail. It's your trip, you tell us what you want, we'll do our best to make your vacation in Ogunquit a memorable one .

We sail five times daily weather permitting, (3) one and a half hour sails, morning and late afternoon, and (2) two hour sails through the middle of the day. The shorter sails are intended to give novices a chance to relax and see the scenery of Ogunquit from our semi private platform. The 2 hour sails provide a more intense experience with conditions being better for sailing mid afternoon . Whichever trip you take you will be under sail within 5 minutes thanks to our prime Perkins Cove location at the southern edge of Ogunquit.
The Morning Cruise
9:30 to 11, is the quietest sail. Generally speaking, the sea is calmest and the winds lightest.
The (2) 2-Hour Cruises
At 11:30 and 2:00 in the middle of the day, offers maximum sun exposure as well as optimum wind conditions.
The 4:30 Departure
This sail is a great way to finish a day on the Maine coast. An hour and a half of fresh air before your lobster dinner.
The Sunset Sail
Our last trip takes you till the sun goes down. It is a beautiful time to be on the water.

Couples and small groups can reserve space on any trip, we will mix and match in order to reach six people. Of course you may reserve all six seats and have the entire boat to yourselves.

Private Charters

We do offer the Silverlining for half-day charter with one week advance reservation. We simply block out two of our scheduled sails giving a four hour time slot.

These are not mix and match sails, they are more group or family gatherings usually centered around anchoring some where for a picnic lunch.

Over the years we have been the site of quite a few small weddings, some intimate marriage proposals, birthday parties, anniversary celebrations, fashion shoots, movie extras and casting of ashes. If being on a beautiful sailboat in a beautiful setting is in your plans, you just need to join us - we are already there.

What to expect

Conditions at sea will be very much like being at the beach, but a little more extreme; windier, sunnier, or cooler, whatever the day. Dress accordingly.

You should wear soft-soled shoes or go barefoot.

Bring a sweatshirt, sunscreen, sunglasses, and don't forget your camera.

You may bring a light lunch, something to drink and a modest amount of alcohol. We have blankets on board if you're cold.
