Captain Mike’s Baywatch

Great experience. Mike gives u a good tour and history of Newport harbor. He offers several custom tours.

first time in R.I. and couldn’t have picked a nicer day to be on the water. a friend and I booked the Full Circle, a 29ft ericson yacht for an afternoon sailing Narragansett Bay. wasn’t long before i got the ‘ol sea legs back, as I hadn’t been on the wheel for some years.
and this was the reason why we hired a private charter. great idea it turned out as we got what we came for. worked the boat from cast off to berthing and sailed amidst some boat races. the combination of wind, tides and traffic made for an exciting 5hrs (nearly) on the water, not to mention the incredible views.
captain Mike is a sea rat in every way and the trip was both animated & instuctive. it’s barebones, well-​maintained, comfy and not for those looking for luxe (though sunblock and peanuts are served). and it could be even more affordable if you get 4 people aboard to share the trip.
p. s. drive in or out of Newport via Pell Bridge-​Jamestown. Wow!
