Enjoy elegance, fine dining, and the unparalleled beauty of Keuka Lake aboard the Esperanza Rose.

The Esperanza Rose is a majestic 65-foot vintage wooden cruising vessel that’s been sailing the waters of Keuka Lake since the summer of 2005. Prior to her rather dramatic arrival on Keuka Lake, the Rose cruised the waters of Chesapeake Bay, until she was purchased by David and Lisa Wegman in 2003. Two years later, after cruising up the Atlantic seaboard, the Hudson River, the Erie Canal, and the Senecal Lake outlet, the rose made a dramatic overland journey to her new home in Keuka Lake. On May 4th, 2005, the 85-ton yacht was towed up and down six miles of twisting Finger Lakes roadways, through the village of Penn Yan, and (finally!) to the shoreline of Keuka Lake.

Guests from around the world—and around the corner—enjoy upscale dinner and lunch cruises, sightseeing excursions, rehearsal dinners, small weddings, and family and corporate events aboard the Rose. The Rose is captained by Finger Lakes veteran sailor Captain Bart Adams, who brings experience, knowledge of the region, and a wonderful sense of hospitality to every cruise.

Captain Bart Adams and his crew look forward to serving you!
