The historic Windjammer fleet sails no more, but our memories will last forever.  Please visit The Flotilla to reconnect with Old Salts, share your stories and photos, and make plans to join future Jammer gatherings.

 Magellan's Pack in half the Space 468x60

 

 

Windjammer Barefoot Cruises ceased operations in late 2007 after the ships, crew and passengers were left abandoned in various ports of call.  Although no official statement was provided by the company, the arrest and eventual public auction of Mandalay and Polynesia indicated that the company would not be resurrected.  Subsequently, the home office in Miami went into foreclosure and was also sold at public auction.  Many long-time customers suffered significant financial losses as a result of cancelled cruises, unused Sail 5 and Sail 10 packages, and worthless investments in the La Mer timeshare project.  In addition, employees and crew suffered the loss of wages and benefits.
