Few people get out on the water these days, and fewer still get to sail a modern sailboat. Here is the single-most unique activity in Williamsburg, where guests get to run the helm or just relax on the water. They get to enjoy an optional talk on the two battles that ended the American Revolutionary War. Sometimes they get to see US Navy ships transiting Yorktown.

Bill was a great captain taught us how to sail and we enjoyed driving the sailboat. This was a very nice boat. It was roomy and comfortable.

To get into sailing and Bill took a lot of his time teaching us about sailing and his boat. Absolutely amazing experience I wish to do again!

We spent a lovely afternoon with Captain Bill on a history sail in the York River. My family was visiting from New York and one is a history buff. We did not expect to have illustrations - they added to the experience.
It was my sister's first time on a sailboat, and a perfect day for sailing.
My husband enjoyed the opportunity to steer the boat.
We had a great time! I highly recommend going out with Captain Bill.

A great afternoon on the York River, thanks to Captain Bill. The teenagers on board loved the opportunity to be at the helm, with encouragement and gentle guidance from the Captain as they âme about. Smooth sailing thanks to a Captain who really knows his craft. We plan to do this sail again when family comes to town.

Sit back, relax, and feel the breeze. It’s an easy motor out to the York River, and the sails are up.
If you’re looking for a laidback sail past historic Yorktown, you are in good hands with Captain Bill. You’ll have a fantastic time.
If you’re the type that likes to take the helm, and learn a bit about sailing, you’re in for a real treat!
