Chrissy & Canon were awesome!

5.00Our sail on the Chrissy was fantastic! Our captain, Canon was super knowledgeable and made the trip very comfortable. There was to be some rain coming in later overnight so it was getting a bit windy. Canon handled the ship with ease and we had a blast! Would do this again!
Fun time

5.00The private trip was well worth the money. Randy was a great skipper. We were amazed at how many lobster pots out in the bay. The weather was perfect

5.00We had an awesome ride around the bay with Captain Bob. He did his darndest to find us some wildlife and would get so excited when he would find something. It was a very relaxing trip. He brought comfortable seats for us to sit in and the boat was very clean. It couldn't have been a prettier day to be out on the water. We took a 2 hour trip and it went by so fast. We ordered drinks before hand and we brought a charcuterie board we purchased from The Terrace Grille which is in front of the Pier. It was OUTSTANDING and perfect to much on while on the river. Highly recommend this ride of you want to get away from the crowds.
A Must Do Sunset Cruise!!!

5.00We did the sunset cruise and it was worth every cent! Great views, nice crew, and so relaxing sailing on the water. Watching the crew hoist the sails, with the option of others to help was an experience. Able to see dolphins and seals in the water. We didn't go to expect a narrative cruise but rather a calm sail with beautiful view of bar harbor and to watch the sunset and it didn't disappoint. Yes for our safety we needed to sit o. The designated green benches during hoisting so no one got hurt but afterwards we could freely walk around to take i views and take picture. This was one of our top 3 highlights of our trip!!!!
Boat tour cancelled

1.00Would love to share pics of our exciting private tour, however it was cancelled 4 days before our arrival on a cruise ship. We were told there were "captain scheduling" issues and our money was refunded but it was not the day we expected. We were offered to get on a non private tour, i really feel we were tossed aside for a more $$$ opportunity. It was our 44th wedding anniversary. I know things do happen , i post this as information. Hopefully, it is uncommon.
