A Message from Captain Greg
I have loved the sea and sailing from the time I was a little boy growing up on the shores of Cape Cod. Most of my summer days were spent exploring the waters and islands of Pleasant Bay on small sailboats or cruising around Nantucket Sound with my Dad.
My first taste of tall ship sailing came on a spring semester abroad in college on the Sea Education Association's 125' schooner Westward. On this boat I enjoyed a true ocean experience while learning the traditions of sailing windjammers. I cruised from Miami to the Bahamas, to Bermuda, to Nova Scotia, and finally ended up in Cape Cod.
After this, I took to the sea for the better part of the next decade, sailing in California, Mexico, the Caribbean, the US East Coast, the bays of Maine, the Canadian Maritimes, and the Great Lakes. I began as a Student and Deckhand and worked my way up to the positions of Mate and Captain.
A few of my other ships include the US Brig Niagara, a 198' double-masted square rigger and the Californian, a 148' square topsail schooner. I also sailed the Spirit of Massachusetts, a 125' gaff-topsail schooner, and many others. Currently, I hold a 100-Ton Near-Coastal Master's License for motor and sail-auxiliary vessels.
As much as I love sailing, I love people even more! People of all ages have a great, relaxing time on Freedom and I look forward to spending a wonderful two hours with you on Florida's sparkling waters.

"Amazing! A wonderful gem, highly recommended! Greg is a great captain who will make this small, intimate sailing adventure very memorable."
— Leon
"We had a perfect sunset cruise with Captain Greg. He’s a sailing purest who actually prefers to use the sails! I’ve been on some where the ‘sailing’ is all done via power, not wind. The weather was great and the sunset that evening was amazing! Do yourself a favor a book a cruise with Freedom. You won’t regret it!"
— June S.
"We took the sunset sail with Captain Greg and it was so much fun! Our family agreed that it was the thing we enjoyed most of our vacation. We saw many dolphins and birds during our time on the water. We will definitely sail again the next time we are in the area."
— Emily H.
