| I happened to get great weather, it was sunny and in the 60's so I was more than pleased with the outing.
Everything about it was great boat, crew, food and drinks. |

| We enjoyed it. Only negative is there was only one choice of meal which was turkey wrap, couscous w/raisins and apple or pumpkin pie. One member of our party couldn't eat any of it and went hungry. I had called to ask in advance what lunch was and was told sandwiches, cookies and salads. Suggest in the future that either they advise people there is only a single choice so we are prepared to bring our own snacks or else provide some choice or at least some snacks like pretzels or chips or something. However, crew was great and boat was nice and we enjoyed the ride. Hot apple cider w/rum was nice treat. |

| The sailing was exciting and energizing. Views were spectacular. But it was the energy and attitude of the crew that made the sail so much fun. They laughed with us and made sure everyone had champagne if they wanted it, kept warm and stayed safe on the boat. Even the food was surprisingly good. |

| Nice date for couples. Beautiful views of Manhattan skylines and great experience for those of us who've never been on a sail boat.
Crew is friendly and hardworking.
Wish we went up the Hudson River a little bit further.
But overall had a great time. |

| The boat trip itself was fun, romantic, and refreshing. With a full boatload of people it was still comfortable. The weather we had was perfect—sunny and chilly, great for snuggling under the blankets provided by the staff. The incredibly agreeable crew were responsible not only for maneuvering the boat and ensuring our safety, but serving wine, champagne, beer and hot cider, as well as lunch later on, and they were very attentive and engaging. I highly recommend this both for a new couple looking for a fun way to get out or an established couple looking for an escape from the city! We may go back out in the spring with a whole group of friends... |

| Missed it last year and vowed to go this year. Well worth it! Staff was very friendly. Weather was perfect. A little chilly but on-board blankets did the trick. Thanks!!! |

| I love Autumn and everything about it, the smell of the air, the colors of the trees, the chilly breeze. This really give us a chance to take in the sights and connect with the environment. With the help of the wind, we were seriously sailing, not just riding around with the sails up. I felt like I was on vacation for 4 hours when really I live only a few miles away. Couldn't have asked for a better crew either. They were friendly and just as excited to be out there as the rest of us. One piece of advice...dress in many layers. It gets cold out there! :) |

| This is a beautiful afternoon on a gorgeous river in a wonderful sailing vessel with a competant delightful, accomodating crew. AND it was far too cold to be on the water even with the hot cider and blankets!
I highly recommend this adventure on a WARM or HOT summer day or a WARM early fall day.
Food left a great deal to be desired.
We are a married couple and will take our grandchild on a shorter cruise this coming summer.
The few children aboard got very bored after an hour or so.
I think a two houir cruise is better suited to children under 13. |
