Fall Sailing on Surprise
We still have a few of our favorite weeks of the season left before the Surprise comes out of the water for the winter. September and October provide consistent winds and bright sunny days on Penobscot Bay, perfect for sailing. The crowds have gone and many times we have small groups on board that make for a more intimate experience for our guests. We always have plenty of jackets and blankets to keep people warm. So bring along something hot to drink and join us on one of our three sails any day of the week until October 16th! Departing the dock at 10:30, 1:00 and 3:30. For reservations call 207.236.4687 or book online at schoonersurprise.com
