If you can do only one activity in Newport, this is it. Sailing at sunset with a glass of champagne with the wonderful crew of Sloop Eleanor is the way to go. All members of the staff are extremely knowledgeable about the area and a joy to be around. The scenery is beautiful.

This was an activity planned for my team after a long day of meetings and it was AMAZING. The crew was fantastic and the experience was one for the books. I would recommend this to any group big or small.

- Amazing sail!!
Our sail on Eleanor was so much fun! We had a large group of girls who absolutely loved it. Collin and the Captain Steve were excellent sailors, knowledgable about the area and made sure everyone on board had a great time!! They provided us facts and stories about local places, which was really cool. The drinks kept coming and were delicious, my friends loved the Dark and Stormy’s. The weather was beautiful, some girls forgot sweatshirts so Collin provided blankets. It was such a fun and cool experience. Everyone on the boat enjoyed themselves. The sailboat and scenery are beautiful, it was a perfect day. Everyone in our group would definitely go on another sail with Steve and Collin, they are awesome!!!
