If you love water, boats, and views as much as Barbara and I do then a Sunset Harbor Cruise aboard the sailing ship Freedom is greatly appreciated. Thanks to Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices for the private charter as a reward to the 100% club. The three hour trip starts at the St. Augustine City Marina. The crew hoists the sails, yes you to can assist if you like, and you are on your way. Through the Bridge of Lions then north on the Intracoastal Waterway towards Vilano. There was less than four feet of clearance between the top of the mast and the bottom of the bridge at Vilano which made things exciting. The catered food from Chili"s and beverages provided on board were greatly appreciated. The captain and crew were very attentive and friendly and have a wealth of information. For added excitement we got chased in by a little summer storm as if on cue at the end of our allotted time. A great time was had by all.
The Schooner Freedom is a 64 foot replica of a 17th century blockade runner built of steel with aluminum spars. She was built in Norfolk Virginia in 1982. The masts are taller than the boat is long and carries 2,400 square feet of sail.
