Cape & Islands Cruise June 2023

Beat the Summer Crowds and Cruise to the Cape & Islands

Tuesday June 7th, to Tuesday June 13th, 2023

Enjoy a cruise through Vineyard and Nantucket Sounds before the summer crowds arrive. The Consistent June prevailing winds will fill your sails to each port. Each day sail is timed to take advantage of the currents in the sounds. If a weather day forces us to stay in port the currents remain reasonably favorable the next day. 
Dinner reservations will be made for registered yachts. Each yacht is responsible for their respective dinner checks and mooring/dockage fees.
