Traverse City Sailing Charters LLC

Captain Tom and his crew (including first mates Joey, Jess, and Teaghan) have created something special on Grand Traverse Bay. Guests consistently describe their sailing experiences as the highlight of their Traverse City visits, praising the immaculate condition of the boat and the crew's ability to make everyone feel like they're sailing with friends rather than strangers. The professionalism shines through in excellent communication before trips and attention to comfort throughout, while the laid-back, conversational vibe makes the whole experience genuinely relaxing. What makes these charters stand out is the thoughtful details and flexibility. Captain Tom is known for sharing local knowledge and sailing expertise without overwhelming guests, answering endless questions with patience, and tailoring each trip to what people want, whether that's swimming stops at Power Island, peaceful sunset cruises, or even serving as the backdrop for a proposal. The boat comes equipped with extras like SUPs, a grill, Bluetooth speaker, and coolers that elevate the experience beyond a basic sail. People repeatedly mention this as a bucket-list experience they didn't know they needed.
