Maximum fun at a 15 degree heel - What a fantastic trip. Captain Bill has a well maintained and very clean boat. What an amazing adventure; so much better than any other sailing tour I've done. We deployed the sails as soon as we left the no wake zone and didn't put them away for 2 1/2 hours when we came back to dock. Yes, it helped that the weather was perfect and we had good winds. Great history of the bay that paired beautifully with our Colonial Williamsburg trip just down the road. The history lesson we asked for showed the Revolutionary War through the eyes of the bay, which most historians don't bring to life. No better way to "stand on the battlefield" than on a sailboat on the water. The captain was kind enough to let me helm the boat for the whole sailing portion and I was delighted. One of my favorite memories over 30 years ago was the quiet sound of the wind and the waves, going fast while heeling. No obnoxious motor with diesel fumes. I relived those memories and basically grinned nonstop for over two hours. Thank you, Captain, for such a wonderful birthday memory. I'm doubly amazed at the fantastic value. Private charter is absolutely the way to go. These tours make an awesome date no matter your age. Captain Bill is an ace at keeping the nautical lingo to a minimum so we could make the most of our time enjoying our trip, learning only as much about sailing as we wanted to.

The Best Captain And A Relaxing Afternoon - Bill was incredible! My girlfriend and I cruised with Bill on a beautiful September day. Bill is so friendly, a genuine pleasure to talk with, super knowledgeable about sailing. We had such a relaxing afternoon as a couple with Bill as our captain. I highly recommend Williasmburg Charter Sails to anyone looking for a fun, relaxing, and enjoyable day on the water!

You must sail with Capt Bill - This was our 4 or 5th time sailing with Capt. Bill. It was excellent. Clean modern ship will the needed necessities. Capt. Bill was relaxed, informative and friendly. The sailing was smooth with the mainsail and jib in action. A pod of 3 porpoises joined us for the last leg of the outing. Excellent ship and skipper. I highly recommend that you sail with Williamsburh Charter Sails.

Captain Bill is a great sailing instructor - My sons and I had a GREAT time! Captain Bill was very knowledgeable and helpful in assisting us with getting sea worthy! He included us all in on the various aspects of sailing and historical information about the area we sailed in.

Relaxation & Dolphins! - 10/10 - Capt Bill was great! My husband and I luckily had the boat to ourselves so we had a nice relaxing sail on the water. Capt Bill gave us both a sailing and a history lesson. He was extremely knowledgeable and we felt very safe with him. BEST PART is we saw so many dolphin!! They swam by our boat and were playing in the water! Very memorable activity!

Great Sailing Trip!! - Capt. Bill was great. Although there was not much wind, it was still very enjoyable for my wife and I to celebrate our anniversary. The historical stories added to the fun.

Highly recommend! - Great experience! Part sailing lesson, part history lesson, part relaxing afternoon on the water. Captain Bill was knowledgeable, well prepared, patient, and a pleasure to spend a couple hours with. Highly recommend!

Best Ever Cruise - It was a wonderful time on the water. I knew my guests would find the history tour interesting, which they did. Fascinating. Afterwards, at lunch at the oyster bar, they gushed enthusiastically about you, the adventure and, especially about your smooth and thorough historical information...all without notes, they noted!! Great day, it was. And, it was fun for you to let me take the helm, an exhilarating time. Certainly will pass along the good word about your operation! Again, super time and with such a terrific host!

Relaxing day sailing - We had a family of four, and the experience was wonderful. Captain Bill clearly has a lot of experience and was wonderful during the whole trip. He let those of us who wanted to steer, enjoy the experience. The kids had a great time, and the York river is really peaceful and not crowded. Highly recommend, and thanks Captain Bill for a great day on the water!

Great sailing trip - We had a nice calm sailboat trip. Not much wind but the Captain knew how to find it! Traveled out by Coleman Bridge. Got to watch a bridge opening for a Navy ship to pass through.
