A group of people enjoy a sunny day on a sailboat, some standing and others sitting, with blue water and a green shoreline in the background. The sail is up and the sky is clear.Sightsailing of Newport is a 30 year old company located on Bowen’s Wharf in Newport, Rhode Island.

All boats offer sails ranging from 1 1/2 hour to 2 hours 4-5 times a day. A large sailboat with white sails glides across the water near a rocky shore, with a grassy hill and people sitting on chairs in the background. An American flag flies from the boat’s stern.
