What guests say
Heard from the water.
★★★★★
"A great way to sail in the Burrard Inlet and have beautiful views of the Vancouver skyline and mountains. Nothing to beat being out on the water on a sunny day. The crew were very competent and able to tell us about the many different commercial and sailing vessels we passed, including Alaska bound cruise ships. The Beneteau is very spacious and comfortable."
