Kirstie and Brandon are great hosts. They were attentive, professional and very engaged. We had a great time and would highly recommend it.

This was such a great way to enjoy the Halifax harbour, and to provide a memorable experience for everyone. Kirsty, our Captain and Colin as first mate showed us the ropes and gave us opportunity to participate, and a taste of all sails including a leisurely return with the spinnaker! An absolutely beautiful sailboat and talented, friendly crew. All our expectations (group of 10) were exceeded. Thanks for the memories!My friend and I went for a 1.5 hour sailboat ride. It was wonderful. The crew was very friendly and offered to take pictures of us. It was great being able to drink wine while we were sailing.

Also, we spent some time sitting on the front of the boat. I definitely want to go back and may go for the longer one as the time went fast.My wife and I went along with friends, I knew I was going out sailing, but my expectations were blown away!!

My wife and I went along with friends, I knew I was going out sailing, but my expectations were blown away!! The JFarwell is an incredible yacht, captain and crew were top notch and the whole experience is an absolute must!!! Anchored and went swimming, paddle boarding. Awesomeness. Went to beach on McNabs island. I’ll be booking again for this summer.Finally, I got to try and my first time experience was truly memorable!! One of the greatest deal I ever had!!

Finally, I got to try and my first time experience was truly memorable!! One of the greatest deal I ever had!! I owe it to four of their staff, I interacted with - all four were Accommodating!!!! First, the girl (Emma or Emily?) at their customer info booth went Above and Beyond to make it happen - I thought the trip would've been cancelled so, I was truly surprised and very much thankful that it wasn't!! Mark, Byron, Brennan (I probably misspelled their names) were Superb!! They let me get involved with the sailing process and they took the time and patience to explain the procedure!! They were Active Listeners and Knowledgeable - they seemed to be more than happy to answer my (trivial) questions!! I find them Super Friendly and quite Funny and real easy to talk to so, the trip wasn't boring!! I really felt that they really like what they do!! All three have that Maritime Hospitality!! They do know how to follow covid protocols even there are no cops around!! Also, they briefed safety procedure at the beginning. And, two of the crews had lifeguarding training on top of all three, combined 27+ yrs experience in sailing and visible-pfds' so, I felt safe!!!! The yacht was clean and it seemed well-maintained!! For 1.5 hrs, the amount you'll pay is going to be worth it!! I recommend it to anyone who never had any sailing experience even to the ones who are afraid of the waters.whole ride was a great experience and want to go again. whole ride was well maintain. rest areas are also well- organize.
