12 Meter Charters
During your sail, you may just sit back and enjoy the sights of Newport or you may participate in the sailing! The captain and crew on board will help those wishing to be involved in the sailing and no sailing experience is necessary to help sail one of our America's Cup 12 Meters.

It's your choice, take part in the sailing of an America's Cup 12 Meter or just relax and enjoy the scenic views of Narragansett Bay. 12 Meter Charters is located at Bowen's Wharf, Newport RI, about 15 minutes from Newport State Airport.
