“Great Anniversary”

Reviewed 10 May 2013

My wife and I recently sailed on the Selina II for our 1st year anniversary and could not have had a better time. The sailboat itself is beautiful, and Captain Iris and 1st mate Frank were great hosts. We were able to enjoy the serene beauty of the Chesapeake Bay and St. Michaels, while also enjoying some fantastic drinks (a... More

“Got engaged this past weekend on the Selina II”

What a great experience! Captain Iris and Frank are amazing people! The boat is 87 years old and is immaculate and beautiful! I had been planning my proposal for monthes and Captain Iris is a real pro at making sure things are executed exceedingly well! I did a private charter as I wanted the boat all to ourselves for my...

“Great experience!!!”

Reviewed 3 May 2013

A beautiful historic boat, with a proud Captain that really brings the experience alive! As you sail on the Miles river , Captain Iris explains the history of her beautiful Selina and the area around St. Michael. The scenery, camaraderie and great selection of beverages make this a very special experience that should not be missed

Thanks for your kind words. Coming from someone so well traveled and discerning makes them even more appreciated. Fun that you hollered 'Uncle' on my horse trivia. Would love to have you aboard again anytime! - Capt Iris More

“Hands down, the best thing to do in St. Michaels!”

Reviewed 30 April 2013

My husband and I have sailed with Capt. Iris twice for the champagne sunset cruise. We've had a wonderful time both times. Capt. Iris makes it very comfortable for everyone; from getting on the boat (which always scares me) to the conversation during the sail. It's very much like sailing with friends. Very relaxed and easy. The scenery is beautiful... More

“Great time”

Reviewed 7 February 2013

For our 5th anniversary (In October 2009), the wife and I dropped off the toddler and headed to St. Michaels. Prior to our fancy dinner, we had some beverages on Selina, an old catboat that sails into the harbor. My wife and I were the only paying passengers, so we got a private excursion with First Mate Frank and Captain... More

Cool sailing with no rain, this became a private champagne cruise with great hor d'oeuvres, we loved it. Thank you Capt. Iris and first mate Skylar. Would highly recommend cruise when visiting...

"What if the weather is bad?" is a question we often hear. We always give our guests the choice of going out as long as its safe, and we are glad you opted to come along despite the threat of rain, We had a great time with you guys, come again anytime!!!! More

“wonderful sunset cruise”

Reviewed 13 November 2012

My husband and i took the most beautiful sunset cruise on the Selina II with Captain Iris. She even let us help with the sails. We had an unforgettable time. She was very informative and took photos of us and even gave us restaurant recommendations. You definitely want to take this tour.

What a nice surprise to see a review out of season, thank you. We normally finish at Halloween, but this year we ended early, and thank goodness because Selina II was already out of the water when Super-Storm-Sandy hit, but she blessedly went unharmed. I'm so glad you enjoyed your sail with us, we truly enjoy having guests aboard, and... More

“The perfect sail”

Reviewed 22 October 2012

On Saturday, October 20, my wife and I had the pleasure of taking in a two hour private sale with Captain Iris Clarke and her first mate, Frank. You'd be hard pressed to find two more wonderful sailors. Both were lovely hosts, informative, gracious and so very pleasant. Selina II is a spectacular vessel, well kept, stable and beautiful.

How nice to be called a wonderful sailor! Frank really is awesome crew, I rarely say a word to him - he seems to read my mind and know what comes next. He makes it easy to be the informative hostess and allows me to focus on our guests. And you two were great company , asked tons of insightful... More

I know your wife mentioned she wasnt big on boats, but I thought she was joking since she was obviously enjoying herself. Whodathunk! So that makes me very glad to have been part of creating a convert; being out on the water is so wonderful and restorative. Thanks for taking a chance in bringing her aboard, and I'm so glad... More
