Reviews
- Afternoon Sail on the Narragansett Bay
This should be on your bucket list of things to do in Newport… There is nothing better than taking in the beauty of the water. The crew of the Adirondack II make the experience incredibly safe, fun, and second to none. It was a great way to spend part of an afternoon as well as see why people over the centuries have been drawn to the water here.

- Beautiful day, great sail on Adirondack II
The boat left the dock on time, it was a great day for sailing and the crew raised the sails as soon as we were out of the channel. They provided an interesting and entertaining description of the local landmarks. And the price was quite reasonable. I highly recommend a sail on the Adirondack II.

- Fantastic afternoon
We recently took that 3pm cruise on the Adirondack II and had a fantastic time. Four adults, four kids and the crew could not have been more friendly, knowledgable or accommodating. Despite being a full boat with several bachelorette parties, they managed the crowd with professionalism, answered all questions and made sure each person was comfortable and taken care of. We will definitely be back!
