The Schooner Lazy Jack was the worst sailboat trip my family and I have ever been on-and we've been on many! We called ahead of time to book the trip. The day of the boat ride, where we were staying (about 30 minutes from Boothbay) it was foggy and overcast, looking like it was about to rain. We called to... More

reerma: I'm not sure where to start in response to your review, particularly since the sailing trip you claim to have taken took place in July of 2011 and it is now March 9th, 2012, eight months later. That's a long time to stay pissed off by the way. You might want to seek help for that. Your review which... More

My wife and I took our two teenagers and our nine year old on the Lazy Jack. It was soooo much fun. The harbor is wonderful and the boat is gorgeous. Both the skipper and the boat have great stories to tell. The skipper is a smart, capable guy with an interesting background. My teenagers can be hard to reach,... More

VERY relaxing atmosphere, great Captain and first mate, AUTHENTIC ship (this ship was meant to sail to the Caribbean in its hay day- it is the REAL DEAL!) we had a really awesome time and would definitely recommend it to anyone. Bring warm clothes... More

We did a sunset cruise with Joe and his first mate Mike. There were only two other couples besides ourselves. It's a smaller boat than the Eastwind, but it made for a more intimate experience. We had light winds, so ended up motoring the last bit back to the dock. The boat is a real piece of history, but it's... More

The 2 hour Lazy Jack Schooner sail is a must when you visit BoothbayHharbor. The only historical schooner in Boothbay Harbor. Captain Joe is knowledgeable and has many stories to tell. Sailing on the Lazy Jack allows you to go back in time and enjoy the feel and quiet of a traditional sail boat. I fully recommend this sailing trip... More

My family, friends and I have been sailing on the Lazy Jack each September for 3 years, when we visit from Texas. It just gets better each year. We enjoy the relaxing sail and chatting with Captain Joe. I like that it is not a constant narrative during the sail, so we can just enjoy sea breezes and sunshine. Captain... More

Sailed on the Lazy Jack on Sept 11 th sunset sail and it was awesome! Capt.Joe said the breeze was unusually good for an evening sail and we made it out to Ram Island lighthouse and Fisherman Islands. The other passengers on this sail were fun and easy to get to know. My wife and I ended up going to... More

Captain Joe and his crew are outstanding. I've sailed with them on the Lazy Jack at least three times. I've also sailed on another schooner in the Harbor with a bad experience. Not only is it relaxing and fun, but Captain Joe is concerned with the safety of his passengers on board his boat. Also, last summer when on the... More

A top notch way to view the area. The skipper was welcoming and informative. The trip was well timed and well priced. One of our most memorable experiences in Boothbay Harbor. More
