Try our alternative to a bed and breakfast inn or beach cottage
rental, or book a celebration sail-away and sleepover.
Persons who book a cruise or sailing class with us are eligible to
use the
Carolina Gale for a sleepover. Southport's Yacht Basin is
within walking distance of shops, library, post office, churches,
restaurants, art galleries, parks, historic sites, theater, and the NC
Maritime Museum. The boat has a refrigerator, propane stove,
microwave oven, TV (no reception available), a VCR/DVD player,
and a stereo. The
Carolina Gale is air conditioned, but due to the
depth of the water in our slip, the air-conditioner should not be run
at low tide. Fans and space heaters may be used. We do not
schedule sleepovers from mid-June through Labor Day.

Linens are provided. Guests are advised to pack their belongings
in soft-sided luggage. Seat cushions are available for lying under
the stars in the cockpit.

Carolina  Gale has two "heads" (bathrooms) with hand-held
showers, good for a quick wash and rinse.

For your comfort and to minimize wear and tear on the boat, a
maximum of four guests may sleep over on
Carolina Gale.

The dining area can be converted to a queen berth,
and the settee on the port side makes a single
berth.
