Cruises with Intention.

There are infinite possibilities to be a part of a specialized cruise aboard Friend Ship and Wild Rose. Whistling Man Schooner Co offers a venue like no other- where all senses come alive. These Specialized Cruises blend natural wonder, exceptional hospitality, and the distinct vision each guest or organization brings to create magical moments on Lake Champlain.

Interested in hosting a specialized cruise?

Every cruise we do is special! We hope that this page inspires you- whether you’re coming for a daytime or sunset cruise and want to bring along these ideas to your own cruise time with us, or if you’d like to host a Specialized Cruise. We take BYO further than food & drink, we encourage you to bring your individuality and creativity aboard our Sloops.
