FAQs

What do I wear?
The temperature can be cooler out on the water so dress accordingly - best to be prepared! Hats and sunscreen are recommended on summer days.

Should I tip the crew?
Yes! It is customary to tip the crew & bartender if you enjoyed your experience.

Will it rain?
Occasionally. Sailing is an all-weather activity; & we do sail in light rain or intermittent sprinkles, however, the Captain will cancel due to severe or unsafe conditions. MBS will do its best to notify you promptly, but last-minute cancelations do happen. If the Captain must cancel a sail, customers will be offered alternate departures, subject to availability, or receive a sailing credit for the current or following season.

What are the seating options on the boat?
There are places to sit on the boat, though we cannot guarantee a proper seat for every person on board. We operate historic boats with authentic on-deck fixtures - many people wander around in order to take in the sights and others take right to the deck like a picnic.

What payment options are available at the bar?
We accept cash or card at the bar.
