(Classic Harbor Line LLC)
Seller Description:
Classic Harbor Line of Chelsea Piers operates 2 of the most exceptional resident sail vessels in the New York Harbor: the Schooners Adirondack and Adirondack III. They held the record finishes in the Chesapeake Bay Schooner Race for 14 consecutive seasons (1994 - 2007). Though they are light and lively sailing vessels, they are also quite comfortable, with ample deck space and seating for up to 49. They were built and designed for taking groups of people on spectacular sightseeing adventures by Scarano Boat Building of Albany, NY.
They are operated by Coast Guard certified captains and extremely friendly and talented crew.
Sailing these schooners is an absolute honor and a privilege. They move through the water so efficiently and beautifully, we take great pride in sharing them with you. Known for their amazing hospitality, our crew is all professionally trained and experienced on sailing our vessels well and safely. Do not hesitate to ask our crew about the boat or any of the NYC sites.

Activity Description
Experience the majesty of New York City's Independence Day Fireworks display aboard the Schooner Adirondack III! Join us in this intimate setting and get the best seat in the house for the annual display!
Adirondack III has a lot in common with her twin, the Adirondack, and is one of the fastest sailing vessels in the New York harbor, having set a course record in the Great Chesapeake Bay Schooner Race.
There will be an open beer, soda, wine, and Champagne bar. Fruit, cheeses, and desserts are also included.
Some illuminated views along the way will include:
- The New York City Skyline
- Battery Park, a 20 acre park at the southern tip of Manhattan, where artillery has been stationed over the centuries
- Ellis Island, the immigrant doorway to America from 1892 to 1954
- The Statue of Liberty, a French gift that arrived in New York harbor in 1885 and has come to represent our nation's freedom and ideals
We will be shutting off our engines and setting sail for as much of the trip as possible before and after the fireworks.
Climb aboard the Schooner Adirondack III and experience the city's most festive summer night!
