Cruises last 2 hours, please check the schedule first to confirm they are sailing on the day you wish to embark. Cruises leaving nearing dusk are called Sunset Sails and operate from a different schedule. You can raise the sails, take the helm, watch for crab pots, see the sunset and experience Annapolis from the water. Beer, wine and soft drinks are available and you're welcome to bring your own lunch/snacks. Bring a camera, a good hat and soft-soled shoes with adequate traction.
