We took the Sunset Sail, and we were rewarded with a beautiful Lake Erie sunset. The sail can be a little cool at night, especially in the Fall. An outstanding evening, which can be followed by nearby local dining. We went with 2 senior citizens along with teenagers, and included on the boat were young couples and families. It is... More
