Wind Star Cruise Line

Windstar Cruises' first "sail cruiser", the Wind Star, was launched in 1986 after more than three years of planning and construction. Not a classic tall ship but a modern cruise liner with sails, the Wind Star and her two sister vessels feature computer-operated sails and a smart-casual environment. In 1988, Windstar Cruises was acquired by Holland America Line, and in 1998 the company purchased its largest sail cruiser, the Wind Surf, from Club Med Cruises.

  Wind Surf is a beautiful ship, but not for the physically challenged. It is 39 steps straight up from the pier to the main deck - doesn't sound like much, but trust me, it's tough even if you're... read more
