Reviewers were right, it was a great experience

I had planned the boat trip as a special treat for my mother's 70th birthday during her and my aunt's visit to NYC. Many tourists who come to the city express interest in taking the Circle Line tours of the rivers that surround Manhattan. Since I knew my mom and aunt would want to get on the water during their visit, I spared myself the horror of riding on one of those awful Circle Line ferryboats and searched the Internet for an alternative that I could enjoy, as well. The many positive reviews on Yelp! led me to SailNYC. I am pleased to say the reviewers were correct, the experience of sailing on a SailNYC schooner was wonderful despite the cold, rainy conditions. Captain Julian and his crew were professional and courteous, friendly and accommodating, and the complimentary beers were a nice touch. The boat was in pristine condition, and there was a great deal of comfortable places to sit, since there were only about 15 other individuals on our trip (the 4 pm sail). The sail was smooth and the captain did a good job of keeping us informed of what to expect when the sails were raised and lowered. I highly recommend SailNYC over the more commercially well known boat operators in Manhattan. For just $10-20 more than the cost of a ticket on a tourist ferryboat, you can experience personalized service and a much more interesting vessel on which to travel. My only criticism is that the plea for tips at the conclusion of the sail was inappropriate. I feel that service should be included with the cost of the ticket, and a request for additional tips should not be openly made. Instead, a "tip jar" should be placed so everyone can see it and tip if they wish.

Julian, the captain, was super nice and friendly. Very good sailor too. His crew was equally personable and helpful. It was a truly great afternoon! Highly recommended!!

At only $40 a person this trip is of great value. Good time had by all even considering the rain.

Despite rainy weather on Sat. June 13th, Captain Julian and his crew made our 4:30pm cruise a really cool, interactive experience and made us want to come back for another cruise. Thus, my wife and I highly recommend Captain Julian and the sail we took on the Imagine! Thank you again. The Wright Family

We went sailing as part of a bachelorette weekend and it was a lot of fun! The staff was very nice and even though the weather was a little gray, we had an amazing time just the same!

Great Views of Manhattan

Took my girlfriend on the day sail for her birthday and had good time. Considering the weather was miserable, we still enjoyed all the spectacular views of lower manhattan, ellis island and the statue of liberty. A nice touch was the microbrewery beer from upstate new york. The only flaw to the ride is that in two hours you cannot go very far out to sea. Maybe buying the longer trip would have been better. Overall had a good time.
