The Sunday Public Sail at The Center for Wooden Boats

The Center for Wooden Boats isn’t just a great place to learn about Seattle’s maritime history; you can actually rent a classic boat of your own to explore Seattle’s sights from a totally different perspective. There’s no better way to get around the city’s shoreline than at the helm of one of these beauties – and if you line up early enough on a Sunday, you can bag a spot for a free sail around the city with the museum’s skippers and crew. Sign-up opens at 10am, and it’s first come, first served.
