Mystic Seaport/Adult Sailing Programs


Recommended Posts

It's been 5 months since we booked our trip that we finally get to go on this weekend!

We are going on an overnight sailing trip on the Schooner Brilliant out of Mystic Seaport in CT.

Although we have not yet gone on the trip, some of the blog posts I have read about it seem pretty awesome! I'll post the pictures when we get back- but I already think we will want to do it again!

Anyone on the Pub do this trip?

I've been up close to the Brilliant tho never been on it.

If you happen to be driving up I-95, you can see the masts from the 'Scenic Overlook' on the side of the highway.

Have a wonderful trip! Tell us your story when you return.

I've been onboard (at the dock), and seen her underway many times when I was at the Coast Guard Academy. Even raced against her, though in a different class. She's pretty, and fairly fast, but takes too long to tack and is of an older design that makes it almost impossible to compete. However, the sailing should be a blast.

Coastie :rolleyes:

She was bigger and faster when under full sail
