| It was a great experience, the crew was great, the ride was nice. The only thing I would like is for them to make more trips, it was hard to get the ticket, specially for the sunset cruise. Other than that, it was an awesome experience. I would def. recommend it. |

| A great way to spend an evening. The crew was very accommodating and the view of New York from the water was fantastic. I would have liked to have gotten a little closer to the Statue of Liberty, but I would still highly recommend going. |

| If you rarely see or have never seen the city from the water, any cruise will do. The views are the point. This particular sail had the views, of course, though not enough, and the rest of it, well, seemed a little too concerned with cutting corners.
1) The wine was pretty bad, which was puzzling since it was offered so sparingly. One understands why a business might hoard good, expensive wine, but what does it mean when a night cruise offers up the cheap stuff in such small and rare servings?
2) Not much cruising for a "cruise," i.e., we went 30 blocks to the tip of Manhattan, hung out for a while among very noisy party boats, then returned.
(Locals would choose this sort of "sail" to escape the noise of the city. So anchoring/lingering anywhere near a boisterous party boat is basically a bad idea.)
Crew and staff were very friendly and pleasant. Kudos to them. |

| A beautiful full moon & fireworks at the Statute of Liberty. The four of us had a fabulous time! A little more wind & it would have been perfect. We want to do it again soon!! |

| My group of friends and I had a fantastic time on the Adirondack city lights sail. The crew was incredibly helpful and attentive. The view of skyline was gorgeous, plus the unexpected fireworks display over the harbor was a great added bonus. I highly recommend the city lights sail - I can't wait for my next sailing adventure! |

| We really enjoyed the trip, we just wished we were able to get out to the East River to see the bridges a little closer. The trip was touted as a trip that included the bridges but we really never got close to them.
Service and crew were excellent. |

Never saw the city look like this.

| What a beautiful night. The beauty of the full moon beaming behind the Woolworth
Building across the Hudson was breathtaking. Fireworks shot off behind the skyline
and we felt like we were in a fairy tale. The air was sweet and we hadn't felt so relaxed in years.
One suggestion. One of the passengers on our cruise insisted on making an extended business call on her cell phone. She loudly played "master of the universe" while everyone tried to relax. It was jarring and for a few minutes put a damper on the evening.
Here's the suggestion. For the 2 hour cruise, why not ask all passengers to show some respect for each other and the beauty that is in front of them. On boarding, why not ask passengers to refrain from using their cell phones for the duration of the cruise. It would help everyone fully enjoy their 2 hour escape.
Again, the jarring phone call was over in 10 minutes. We quickly recovered, but all things being equal we would have preferred the caller had gotten a busy signal.
Thanks. |

| Our first time being on a sailboat turned out to be a great experience. We hopped aboard the Adirondack and took off toward the Statue of Liberty. The city lights tour allowed us to see New York's skyline at its finest. Fireworks appeared in the backdrop of the city(unknown if its a continuous display). We then went past Ellis Island towards Liberty herself. We turned around at that point and headed back. Although your sitting next to a group of people, the experience itself takes you away from that. I recommend this to anybody. |
