The Lady Patty was the perfect way to experience St. Michael’s! The staff made the whole experience seamless and fun and there’s no better way to spend an evening than with a glass of champagne enjoying the sunset on the water. Would absolutely book again if we come back!
Sep 14, 2026 · Google ReviewWe enjoyed the Wine Tasting Sail on Friday afternoon. Both the captain and his first mate were pleasant and made the trip very enjoyable. We were encouraged to sit up front on the bean bag chairs which was the perfect spot. It was so comfortable and allowed us the best view of the Bay.

Sep 9, 2026 · Google ReviewMy wife and I did a quick pre-Labor Day getaway to St. Michaels and our afternoon sail with beer/wine tasting was definitely a highlight of that trip. Tim and John were both fantastic and knowledgeable hosts. It was hot the day we went and we reserved the 3pm cruise and had it all to ourselves. Tim joked that we could have rented out the whole boat, or just made a reservation and gotten lucky (we did!). We sailed on the Lady Patty. It's an older boat, but you can tell that the owners took love in restoring her and meticulously care for her. There was ample space for at least another 20-25 people aboard and it still wouldn't have felt cramped. It was a wonderful experience. We felt the stress melt away the further into our sail we went. I'd highly recommend St. Michaels Sailing Charters for anybody visiting St. Michaels, or who lives nearby and doesn't have their own sailing vessel.

Sep 7, 2026 · Google ReviewWe had a great time out on the water with Rob (captain) and Steph. They not only sailed us around the Miles River, but also shared a general history of St. Michaels and the area. It was an enjoyable trip, and we would happily do it again!

Aug 23, 2026 · Google ReviewCaptain Jim and mate Josee were phenomenal hosts. They made our cruise one of the most memorable experiences of a lifetime. Our sunset cruise was enchanting and the Epiphany is a beautiful ship with all the comfort and amenities one could ever wish for while on a cruise. The sunset was beautiful and this extraordinary cruise will forever hold a special place in our hearts. It was a pleasure meeting Daniel and Andrea as well. Everyone was so friendly and accommodating. Much success to them all!
Aug 19, 2026 · Google ReviewWe took the sunset cruise on the Lady Patty this past Sunday and we had an amazing time. Cpt Yvonne and her first mate (I am so sorry that I forgot his name) were absolutely amazing. They were so knowledgeable about the surrounding area and told great stories as we sailed. We had never been on a sailboat before and it was so much fun. Highly recommend this tour.
Aug 18, 2026 · Google ReviewBeautiful boat with a fascinating history and a Captain and First Mate who made it even better. I arrived on probably the most calm day of the month but we still managed to sail the majority of the trip. I can only imagine the ride when the wind picks up! Lovely scenery, can't go wrong!
