Details
BaySail is a nonprofit dedicated to fostering environmental stewardship of the Saginaw Bay Watershed & the Great Lakes ecosystem, through sailing excursions aboard the tall ship Appledore IV. Our programs, from hands-on STEM learning in Science Under Sail to immersive sail training in Windward Bound, cultivate a deep connection to the Great Lakes. Public sails, including our scenic sunset cruises and educational "Great Lakes 101" daysails, serve as vital gateways to our mission. While offering memorable experiences and showcasing the beauty of the region, these sails also introduce passengers to the ship's history, the importance of environmental preservation, and the interconnectedness of our natural world. By sharing stories and insights during these public voyages, we ignite a passion for the Great Lakes, turning casual sailors into informed stewards of this invaluable resource. Enjoy sailing our waterways just like these ships sailed 200 hundred years ago!
Amenities
The Appledore Tall Ships provide public sailing excursions, private charters, corporate team building programs, and dinner cruises on the Saginaw River and Saginaw Bay. Sails typically depart from the downtown Bay City dock at Wenonah Park. Ticket sales help support BaySail's mission to foster environmental stewardship of the Saginaw Bay Watershed and the Great Lakes ecosystem by providing personal development opportunities for learners of all ages through ship board and land based educational experiences.
