Fall Foliage Schooner Sail

while the trip was great, the air was up and the crew was both great and truly professional. we were a bit disappointed at the end. we left late and so i asked the woman in the ticket booth if they would be adding on the difference and she said yes. but actually we ended up dropping the sails early and motoring the rest of the way to get us back by the original time, cutting the trip short. other than this it was great!!

The sail up the Hudson was wonderful and the crew top-notch. Looking forward to the Architectural cruise on another visit.

The four hour sail up the Hudson was well worth the money. For the same cost as a show or a bus tour, you get a relaxing, quiet look at the Manhattan skyline and NJ Palisades. Plus, drinks (yes, with Rum if you want it) a sandwich and a knowledgeable, friendly crew are included. The trip ran from the 23rd street dock to the GW Bridge. Although we were expecting more mileage, the distance was right for the time, given the wind and current conditions. There seemed to be little space to retreat to if it rained, so be prepared for the prevailing weather conditions [although the web site says the trip would be cancelled if the weather is too inclement]. We sailed on a crisp November day, and it felt like we successfully extended our Summer vacation.

Despite the chilly weather, it was great to sail up the Hudson to see the foliage. The crew was fabulously attentive. Good food and drink, great day.

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.

My daughter and I really enjoyed the trip. We recommend it for everyone. Captain and crew very nice and helpful. Ship was beautiful. Service great. All in all a wonderful day.

It was our second trip and it was fabulous. It was a chilly fall day and the leaves were beautiful. It was warm inside the cabin of the motoryacht and the brunch was delicious while we sailed up the Hudson. We're planning our next trip.

Quiet adventure in the midst of a NY stay ! wonderful captain

I totally enjoyed the cruise and wold do it again. It was a bit too early for the fall foliage but a beautiful day nonetheless. The champaigne was plentiful, good quality box lunch and enough blankets to keep everyone warm.

As indicated above, we would highly recommend this activity. As this was our first sail boat ride, It exceeded our expectations. The Captain and crew were helpful, informative, friendly and fun. The lunch and drinks added to the overall ambiance. We are considering a similar trip next Spring.
