Exactly what I hoped! Lovely boat, well fitted and friendly crew. Small group makes it easy to mix if desired or just enjoy the view and the breeze.

Had a fantastic trip on the Decompression. It was a wonderful experience, Howie (the captain) and Chrissy really took care of us. The 3 hour sailing ride took us down a lovely path around the Harbourfront and Toronto Island area. We'd ordered a charcuterie board which was more than enough for the 10 of us. Cannot recommend this experience enough!
