Schooners North

Sailing aboard our traditionally gaff-rigged vessels engages your senses and takes you to another place in time, a time away from a busy world. The experience of a cruise in the San Juan Islands, and the ship SPIKE AFRICA are filled with the history, adventure and romance of a by-gone day. Close your eyes and you’ll hear the wind in the rigging and the water against a wooden hull, smell and taste the fresh salt air, and feel the gentle motion of the boat as she glides through the sea. These sensations have been shared amongst seafarers since the dawn of sail.
