Started in 1983 as Michigan’s only full time charter operation, Great Lakes Sailing Co. has grown to become a reputable and reliable charter fleet and sailing school.

Our charter fleet is the largest on Lake Michigan and offers meticulously maintained sail and power yachts. Many Great Lakes Sailing Co. sailing school instructors have been named “ASA’s (American Sailing Association) Outstanding Instructor” and Great Lakes Sailing Co. has twice been named “School of the Year”.

Great Lakes Sailing Co. continues to offer outstanding sail education and provides a top-notch fleet of charter vessels for the more experienced sailors.
It was a natural step to start selling boats as we have managed and maintained all different brands for so many years. Great Lakes Sailing is proud to represent Marlow-Hunter and Jeanneau sailing monohulls as well as Gemini Catamarans in the Great Lakes region.

Sailing out of Traverse City, Michigan, Tall Ship Manitou is a replica of an 1800’s “coasting” cargo schooner, similar to those that sailed the Great Lakes and the Atlantic Ocean.
