"Some call it Chance.
We call it Fortuity.
Little did Lee and Emily know that a chance meeting on a cold and rainy December afternoon in Seattle would profoundly change the rest of their lives.
Fast forward to today -- the two are married, living in the Yakima Valley and embarking on the vintners' life!
Located in the Yakima Valley (Wash.) and established in 2017, Lee and Emily Fergestrom work closely with wine grape growers to select fruit that showcase the best of the Yakima Valley. Quality is top priority and the results are bright, fruit-driven wines – perfect for pairing with food!"
Your all-inclusive ticket includes all wines, and amazing bites from a local chef, as well as a beautiful evening onboard the Schooner Bay Lady. Sit back and relax as we sail the Puget Sound, or lend a hand in helping lift her incredible 87 foot mast!
About the Bay Lady:
"Boasting an impressive 85 foot length, we are the most comfortable sailing experience on Seattle’s beautiful waters. The Bay Lady was custom built for charter sailing in 1989, and therefore is outfitted with plenty of comfortable seating (even with backrests!), two onboard bathrooms, and a robust perimeter railing to keep everyone safe.
The love and attention of the craftspeople who built her resounds in her hull to this day. She features American Ash, Honduran Mohagony and Brazilian Rosewood all varnished to perfection. With a massive 87 foot mast, she is indeed a “tall ship”, and with her cloud of 2500 square feet of sail area she sails nicely in even a gentle breeze. Oh…and she has a cannon. Just sayin’."
We are excited to announce that Chef Misty Banchero will be joining us onboard, you can find her incredible Instagram page @seattlebutcherswife. She is an incredible "lady griller" and has some delicious dishes for us to try!
