Day Sail on the Sultana
Time: 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Location: Annapolis to Chestertown
For those interested in a more prolonged sailing experience on the open waters of the Chesapeake Bay, Sultana offers Public Day Sails throughout the season that give you the opportunity to accompany Sultana on one of her port-to-port transits. These sails generally last from 5 to 8 hours in length, beginning in one port and ending in another. Day Sails give the captain and crew a chance to unfurl more of Sultana’s canvas and sail somewhat harder than is usually possible during our two-hour sails.
$50 per person/no children under 12/no return transportation. Call 410-778-5954 for reservations.
