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.
As part of learning to sail, you get to run the helm (wheel) and to turn the sails as we tack back and forth. During the history tour, you get to see famous works of art which will then be sent to you

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!
