Helpful tips when booking a Wine Cruise:
Passengers need to be physically able to step down into the boat and step up onto the docks. These differences in height may be difficult for some people. There is also some walking involved from the docks to a couple of the Wineries. Since you will be out on the lake, please bring sunscreen, and bring clothing for changing weather conditions, including rain gear. Captain Jim's Boat has canvas tops that can cover the boat, so we don't need to cancel Cruises for occasional rain showers. You may also bring snacks and beverages to drink aboard the boat, which includes wine purchased while on your cruise. No children or pets please. Coolers are limited to the size a person can carry in one hand. Large Coolers will NOT be permitted on the boat. *The cost of tastings are not included in the price of your Cruise.*
