Sunset Sail Buzzards Bay in a Classic Sloop!

I recently had the pleasure of sailing with Captain Freddie on his boat for a surprise two-hour cruise with my girlfriend, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we stepped aboard, we were treated to breathtaking views of Buzzard's Bay and a sense of tranquility that only the open water can offer. The scenic beauty of the surroundings was truly stunning, and we found ourselves captivated by the serene atmosphere that only a sailboat can provide. Freddie was an absolute delight and contributed significantly to the enjoyment of our trip. His friendly and attentive personality put us at ease, and his passion for sailing was evident throughout the journey. He told us all about his restoration of his boat and made sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. We knew nothing about sailing, and he explained all about how the sails work, answered my endless questions, and his expertise and seamanship were evident. We felt completely safe under his guidance. The overall experience was nothing short of magical. From the sunshine and fresh air to laughing and relaxing on the deck while Freddie told us all about the area and his tales of trips to Martha's Vineyard and beyond. I scored some serious romance points with my lady by booking this trip. I would 100% sail with Captain Freddie again without hesitation.

I cannot rave more about how AMAZING our experience was with Geoff! 1000 stars! It was absolutely beautiful and he made sure we had the best view of the sunset. We booked with him for an engagement photoshoot and he was super professional, fun, and incredibly helpful throughout helping us get the perfect shots. I’d recommend booking with Geoff for any occasion. I will definitely book again! Thanks Geoff!

Geoff was awesome! His sailboat was very clean and he was very accommodating. My wife and I went out to watch the sunset in Portsmouth and the itinerary was perfect. Geoff was really pleasant and we’ll definitely book with him again.

Cal 36 Sailboat Rental in Marblehead, Massachusetts

My sisters and I had a wonderful experience with Captain Allan Waldman. We rented the Emma Rose to take our mother’s ashes and scatter them in the ocean out of Marblehead Harbor, where the boat is conveniently located. We were transported to and from the boat by independent launch from Commercial Street Wharf. The weather was luckily beautiful and the trip was made quite memorable by Captain Allan’s sensitivity to our needs. He is comfortable with people and gave us the time to absorb the experience we had and also enjoy the beauty of the afternoon.

Cal 36 Sailboat Rental in Marblehead, Massachusetts

I booked this trip to propose to my girlfriend and Allen made this very memorable. The harbor and surrounding area in Marblehead was beautiful, and seeing all the other sails in the horizon is a scene that makes this experience worth every penny. Allen was friendly and very knowledgeable. I had never been on a sailboat before but the classic look and close quarters seating area of this vessel made for a romantic setting. Absolutely recommend for a date, special occasion, or just a casual sail around the Gold Coast.
