The Experience

What your day looks like

Sails past World One, Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. Enjoy 1 complimentary beer, wine, Champagne or soda. Additional beverages are available for purchase by credit card onboard. Very popular for couples (no 'kids' tickets available on sunset or city lights departures). Experience New York City lights like you never have on this sail along the bright and beautiful borough of Manhattan. Join us aboard Adirondack, our 80-foot wooden pilot schooner, you will quickly forget the mayhem and noise of Manhattan street life. You'll take in the famous Manhattan skyline as it was meant to be seen from the water. You will also enjoy spectacular views of Ellis Island, the Statue of Liberty. While each sail may differ due to the wind and other conditions, we try to follow our regular route, which involves heading south from Chelsea Piers and down the Hudson River to Battery Park, passing by Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. There are also fantastic views of the Financial District and the NYC skyline. Along with your captain, there is a minimum of two crew members on every sail to make sure you feel comfortable and at home on the water. We are stocked with water, beverages, blankets, and life jackets, should you feel you need one. There are also private marine heads (bathrooms) onboard. Our sail will end at the same pier from which it departed.
