Your Captain, Crew and Your Opportunity to Discover

Quintessent is a sailing vessel built in Taiwan in 1983. She has been hand built by master craftsmen to standards that include, safety, function and the best products for sailing vessels in her day. She has incredible appointments such as the all wood interior finish which is very rare today in these times of 'plastic' factory made boats.
We love sailing so much and the closeness it brings us to creation and natural beauty. It is something we are compelled to share with you.
In this website you will discover pictures, stories and memories of past Quintessent guests. Scroll down to get more information from brochures to ideas for winter sailing and links to interesting sites.
Jay Luck is a Coast Guard licensed captain to 100-ton vessels. Alex Cucci-Luck, although a teenager, knows the Quintessent well. He sailed her with Captain Luck since he was 4, and is a fine seaman. Lori Luck, Captain Jay's other half, is our newer sailor. She adds to our experience from her nature studies and it's relevance to our energy, peace and balance, including health and beauty. Lori brings a knowledge of raw foods nutrition, acquired from observations with internationally renowned raw foods expert Dr. Aajonus Vonderplanitz. Lori continued her experience in Hawaii at retreats she designed for detoxification and holistic healing with foods.
We sail the Quintessent in the tropics and the upper Mississippi River while offering our guests opportunities to sail with us in all locations. Meanwhile in 2008, sail with us on the incredible Mississippi River and it's tributaries, the great Lake Superior or join us during the winter in the tropics.

| Capn' Jay enjoys cruise June 26, 2004. He is a licensed captain for vessels to 100 ton. He believes in the saying, "It's not the gale, but the set of your sail that determines which way you'll go." |
Capn' Jay
To me sailing is like my zen. It's like air, I have to have it in my life. I have the unique and blessed opportunity to share sailing with people from many walks of life. The inspiration and peace it provides them is sometimes incredible.
Folks have renewed vows, become engaged, slowed down and realized what is important in life. I'm blessed to be part of that inspiration.
We're embarking on our TV show starting in June. Watch for more information.
