Hats, sunglasses, sunscreen and cold beverages are recommended during the warmer summer months. Sweaters and jackets are recommended for evening and late season tours. The weather in New England changes often, and quickly. Because of this, we do not postpone or cancel boat tours until shortly before the scheduled time of departure.
