By the time the scent of sunscreen had permeated the deck of Arabella, the sails were up, and the exquisite ship was slicing through the waters off Newport Rhode Island. A week would go by, and the lucky ASA members aboard would visit Martha’s Vineyard, Nantucket, and Cuttyhunk. A few members took the helm, others basked in the sun, and quite a few made lifelong friends.

A sailing excursion like this takes a group of strangers and allows them to share their passion for sailing. Sailing is about a lifestyle. Sailing is about sitting back and letting the ocean and the environment dictate a bit of what you want to control.

Take a look at a few of the hundreds of images from our latest sail aboard Arabella and keep an eye out for an announcement about our upcoming charters on this mega sailing yacht.

If you’d like to join us a future voyage onboard the magnificent Arabella then you can sign up for our priority boarding mailing list at americansailing.com/arabella/.[foogallery id=”41246″]

Sailing Arabella with American Sailing

There are eight sails on Arabella, and when she is fully outfitted to move in the wind, she is majestic. When you see her from shore, you ponder what it would be like to feel the movement on her decks. When you are on board, you sit in awe. She is elegant and poised as she adapts under full sail.
