Our Mission
CAPTAIN HARLOD S. BRITT
USCG 100 Ton Master Captain
Captain Harold Britt and his wife Melanie grew up on the coastal waterways and have been sailing in and around Mobile Bay, Orange Beach and the Gulf of Mexico since they were young. They have great regard for the beautiful coastal waterways and the local wildlife. Capt. Britt and Mel love to educate their guests about the area waters and local folklore. They also believe in showing their guest a true sailing experience. “When you book a sailing trip that’s what you should get. No noisy motors or tight sails without wind.” – Capt. Harold.

First time sailing? Not to worry Back Bay Sailing Adventures features a Cal 39 MKIII. She is a 39-foot sailing yacht with ample room on deck and down below in the salon. The captain and crew will make sure you are comfortable and relaxed.
The entire CAL 39–hull, deck, and interior, is the work of the master, Bill Lapworth, whose classic boats are simply legends. And “classic” isn’t a characteristic a designer applies to a boat, it’s a recognition that the boat must earn.
