The Wing It Take a Ride on the Wing It Available from Early June thru Fly-In Weekend Moosehead Lake extends for 32 miles north of Greenville, and is scattered with hundreds of islands, quiet coves, broad bays, and mile upon mile of unspoiled shoreline. Enjoy the lake and all of its magnificence from the decks of a 48' cabin cruiser, complete with captain and crew and available for any excursion, gathering or event you choose. The Wing It is a 48', three deck cabin cruiser of classic lines and design. Made of wood, it was built by the Trojan Yacht Company in 1972 and brought to Moosehead in 1996. The boat features a flying bridge, a forward sun deck, a covered stern deck with BBQ grill, a main salon, full galley, two staterooms, and two baths. There is also a convenient swim platform with ladder off the stern. Drawing 3 1/2 feet of water, The Wing It can navigate most parts of Moosehead and can accommodate as many as 20 guests or as few as you desire. Weather permitting, we offer a late afternoon cocktail cruise every day departing the restaurant at 4:30 PM sharp. The cruise is for 1 1/2 hours on the southern end of Moosehead and includes free appetizers and a cash bar on board. We limit capacity to 16 guests so we suggest that you sign up by 3PM by calling 695-1100 or simply stopping by the restaurant. Based at East Cove in Greenville and operated by the Black Frog, full food and beverage service is available on board from hors d'oevres to full dinners such as lobster or filet mignon. Beverage service can be anything from soft drinks, beer and wine to your favorite liquors. You may plan your own route or let the captain choose for you. The location of local landmarks and a narrative about the lake are available from the crew as you cruise. Quiet coves are within several miles of Greenville where anchor can be dropped for a swim or moor for a cookout or dinner with the potential of a moose wading into the lake not far away and loons swimming nearby. The Wing It generally cruises at around 8 knots. You may choose to go out for lunch, for an afternoon swim, a cocktail cruise, an al fresco dinner in a quiet cove, or a sunset cruise watching the sky light up with purple colors as the sun sets on the western horizon, and then enjoy desert under the stars as we cruise home.
