Sailboat
We offer 2 to 3 hour day trips, evening sunset sails, and moonlight sailing trips in July and August. We also, weather allowing, schedule trips during the annual Perseid meteor shower. In addition to our day trips, we offer sailing instruction aboard a 32 foot keel sloop and a 19 foot centerboarder. Instructor Susan Peterson Gateley is an experienced classroom teacher and has authored several books on Lake Ontario. She is especially interested in getting other women at the helm of their own boats.
