I was so happy to be able to take my kids out on the water with this incredible crew and boat! James is a fantastic Ship's Captain who made us feel incredibly safe and at ease. It was my kid's first time on a sailboat so I didn't know how they would take it, they were comfortable in minutes. Calico Jack started the mood off right with some jokes and some fun facts. Sailing along the Delaware River was a first for me as well and I could not have been happier. Along the way, Calico Jack spun stories and told us some most likely true facts about all the historical spots along the river that we passed. James filled in as well with his own historical knowledge and really made the experience wonderful. I cannot say enough good things but please do yourself a favor and book this boat!

Our sail boat tour of Philadelphia was so much fun and really relaxing. I highly recommend either the historic Philly boat tour or the sunset sail. For anyone thinking of proposing or even getting engagement photos taken, definitely book a sailboat and get James to photograph the event for you. What a romantic setting! My husband said he wished that he thought of it before and to be honest, so do I! The experience, the views, and James were all wonderful and we will be back!

James and his crew did a fantastic job navigating my tour on The Delaware River. So much information was presented in the tour, and I walked away feeling like I learned more about this gem we have in Philly. The boat is beautiful, clean and just a sight to see as you take sail. James is professional, considerate and practices boat safety throughout the whole excursion. I would definitely recommend the First Light as a one of a kind adventure, that everyone should experience!

James is a wonderful boat owner. We went out for our engagement photo shoot. We were able to get up close to some of the wonderful historic sights of the Delaware. The operation is extremely safely run, and we had a wonderful and educational time. Something else to remember our engagement by.

Booked a private charter for a small group and came back delightfully sun-kissed and champagne tipsy! A very chill time on the water. James is a fount of knowledge for all things sailing and Philly coast lines - highly recommend!

What a spectacular sunset sail! We had a wonderful time with James aboard "First Light"! We had a beautiful breeze and for the most epic sunset sail finish, we had a stunning double rainbow! We could not have wished for a more romantic sail! We highly recommend James and "First Light"!
