Sailing Cruise Vacations

By Billy Wang

The cool breeze on your face, the salty sea water smell in the air, the loud flapping noise of the sails are all aspects of cruise vacations on a sail boat. If you are into nature and being one with the sea, this cruise is definitely for you.

One of the main aspects of cruising on a sail boat is relaxing. The reason why such cruises are so relaxed is because the majority of your power is due to wind. If there's no wind, then you won't be able to sail very far. However, don't worry, sailboats do have small motors which are used when docking or going to port.

There are not that many activities on board these ships as the majority of space is reserved for passengers, crew and equipment. However, these crews are focused more on relaxing and just enjoying the surroundings. If you are looking for some romance, a sailing cruise is a great alternative to a traditional cruise. The Sea Cloud is one of the finest sail boats to cruise the oceans and should be experienced firsthand for those who enjoy cruising.

Many people are worried that they will be stuck in the middle of the ocean if they do decide to go on a cruise. Don't be silly, each sailing cruise has a motor in the event that there is no wind. Note that you won't be able to sail with wind all of the time and the majority of the sailing is done at night when there is more wind. Other places such as the Caribbean as great sailing winds and can be utilized at all parts of the day.

Lastly, many people worry that they will be stuck on their cruise if there is not wind. Don't worry, each cruise ship has an engine and can be used if there is no wind to power the boat. However, many sailing boats such as the Caribbean tours have nice trade winds that push the boat and keep it on-course. New higher-tech sail boats have automatic sails that come up when the wind is just right and go down when there's no wind. However, if you want the real deal, stay away from these boats as you won't be sailing as much because you will be on regular engine power the majority of the time.
