Bring your favorite food and drinks to savor while our knowledgeable crew shares tales of the lake's rich history, including shipwrecks and the first lighthouse built in 1825.

Travelers will board a beautifully restored traditional Friendship Sloop and set sail across Lake Champlain, where the wind guides a relaxing and unhurried journey on the water. Along the way, guests can take in panoramic views of scenic shorelines and more than 70 named islands, admire the stunning Adirondack and Green Mountain backdrops, and listen to engaging stories, legends, and local history shared by the knowledgeable crew. The cruise may also pass notable landmarks such as historic lighthouses and shipwreck sites, all while guests enjoy their own food and drinks in a calm and intimate setting. Since each route depends on wind conditions, no two trips are ever the same, making every sailing experience truly unique.
