Özel Yelkenli Akşam Kiralama Nova Scotia, Kanada

We ensure you a day of sailing you won't soon forget. With more than 50 years of sailing experience and a well-found sailboat, you'll cruise the Bras d'Or Lake in elegance, safety, and style.

Enjoy a three-hour picturesque ride on the Bras d'Or Lake as the sun sets over the island-studded St. Peter's Inlet. This might be a sailing and/or motor cruise depending on the winds, which are generally light in the evening. Guests are allowed to maneuver the boat, manage the sail, or simply rest.

Your trip starts at our dock, which is located near the lakefront end of the famous St. Peter's Canal, where you will meet your skipper and join the yacht.

This is the location of North America's oldest working tidal lock canal, which was built in 1869. It links the Atlantic Ocean to the magnificent inland sea of Cape Breton... the Bras d'Or Lake.

The lake and its watershed are a UNESCO World Biosphere Reserve and a world-renowned sailing destination.

We also provide the option to sail in the Atlantic Ocean off Cape Breton's southern Atlantic Coast by transiting the famous St. Peter's Canal.

You'll be sailing on a freshly renovated classic Canadian cruising sloop with plenty of character and modern comforts to ensure your sailing vacation is safe and enjoyable.

Our sailboat is a Niagara 35 sailing yacht designed by acclaimed marine architect Mark Ellis and constructed in 1980 by the iconic Canadian boatbuilder Hinterhoeller. She is one of 260 hulls manufactured in this type between 1978 and 1990. The Niagara 35 was designed as a passage-making yacht, built to the highest industry standards, and has proved to have accomplished Ellis' idea of '...building boats for longevity in the way they pleasure the eye and their durability in usage' for over four decades.

She likes to sail at 6 knots in our regular summer breezes and can maintain 7 knots or more when the wind picks up to 15 knots. She tracks readily, responds to the helm, and steers herself easily in a variety of situations. Tacking and jibing are a breeze because to the doubled mainsheet system and large self tailing winches for the foresail.

Captain and a crew of expert consultants and assistants have meticulously repaired and refitted it to near-new condition over the last 5 years. Upgrades for the twenty-first century include a solar-powered electrical system, electronic navigation instruments, refrigeration, LED lighting, new wiring and plumbing, a new diesel auxiliary engine, and other features.... Fresh rigging and canvas, new interior finishes and upholstery, warm air heating for the shoulder seasons, hot and cold running water, a well-equipped kitchen, and a private head are all standard features. It offers spacious accommodations for day sailing with up to six passengers or live-aboard for four. Both the vessel and the master have been approved in accordance with Transport Canada Small Vessel standards.

She is crewed and outfitted for day sails and multi-day expeditions on the Bras d'Or Lake and Cape Breton's coastal waterways.
