Portland's Only 90 minute River Sailing Tour will begin again May 1, 2012!

In 2012 we will offer five special 90 minute voyages departing daily at 4pm, 6pm, 7:30pm from May to November 1 and a 9pm city Lights cruise and a full moon sail on Friday and Saturday nights departing 10:30pm during the summer Cruises are $59 per person.

Our vessels are available for private charters at other times of the day.

Our 90-minute sail begins with a cruise across the river to the most expensive floating homes on the Willamette. On the 4pm sails we usually head up river to the Waverly Country Club, the Palatine Castle and the spectacular views at the volcanic caldera near Elk Rock Island. On other sails we head down the historic Holgate channel on Portland's own "Jungle Cruise" to the spectacular city riverfront where we�ll sail close to shore and then ease the sheets for a fun run up the west side of Ross Island and then back to the dock. Let your captain know if you have a preference.

You are welcome to bring snacks or drinks (adult beverages are ok:-) on your cruise.

For 2-6 passengers per boat (private parties up to 18 guests can be arranged on our fleet)

You can schedule online or call 503-893-2283 or email info@sailscovare.com today to reserve your place on the yacht!

What people are saying:

"We had a fantastic time sailing with Shane with Scovare. It was a gorgeous day. For first timers, we had a lot to learn. Shane was very patient and taught us so much. He knows what he is doing and loves doing it! What more can you ask for? We can't wait to go again."

-Lauren Ferrara and Cheryl Mayhew

"Twenty years from now, you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones that you did. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."
