We made a last minute decision to sail once we saw the weather would be nice. Enjoyable sail, relaxing afternoon, gracious crew. Highly recommend! |

My 9 year old and I had a great time, the crew was very helpful, answering questions and making us comfortable. The sails were lovely and the Schooner sailed over the water at a smooth relaxing pace. I loved every minute of it, my first sailing trip and look forward to an opportunity to sail again. Great experience and recommend it to anyone. |

Check wind speed predictions for a great ride

Very nice trip, well run, with free drinks and blankets as needed. Early in the morning we saw wind predictions of 20 to 30 mph and then bought the tickets, which made for an exciting ride in the afternoon, although the schooner was only able to put up half its sails because the wind was so strong. (The captain is not allowed to "keel" maximally because some passengers may have bought tickets for relaxation rather than drama.) Highly recommended for a two-hour getaway. |

This was my second time on the trip and it was fantastic. I've lived in the city for 6 years but nothing beats sailing around Manhattan on a gorgeous, sunny day. The crew was super attentive to our group, always asking us if we wanted drinks. I would definitely recommended this activity to anyone visiting the city. |

as ex sailors, we were a bit dubious as to what to expect from a tourist cruise on a sailboat. Not to worry, we had a great time, the boat sailed the entire trip, professional staff were not intrusive, and fantastic views. Crew gave out info as needed, did not get into a typical canned tourist spiel. Nice boat, everything worked, sailed great.
Highly recommend. |

Excellent excursion. Excellent crew makes you feel welcome and seem very safety conscious. The Adirondack was a comfortable and smooth sailing boat. |
