Classic Yacht Althea

Althea Interior sail traverse city sailing charters grand traverse city

Traverse City Sailing at its finest

We invite you to kick back and relax on a sailing cruise aboard the beautiful Althea and experience Traverse City and Grand Traverse Bay! This classic 1963 offshore racing yacht, designed and once owned by renowned yachtsman and America’s Cup winner Ted Hood, is perfectly suited for an exquisite sailing excursion on the Bay. Along with a professional captain and crew, Althea is rated to take 6 guests on board her historic decks. Create an unforgettable boating experience onboard the majestic Althea.

I would recommend this experience for families, couples on a date, celebrations, relaxation, learning about sailing, and anyone seeking a unique thrill!

A gorgeous and interesting historic sail boat! It was an amazing sailing experience and we had so much fun! Captain Brett was outstanding and made us all feel so comfortable on board, especially our small daughter who had never been on a boat before. 10/10 would recommend
