| I have been out on the Adirondack before as well as the yacht cruise and loved both of them tremendously. I have background on the water and try to get out as often as possible. When we went out on Sunday the crew was unable to raise the back sail and thus we wound up motoring for the first 40 minutes of our 2 hour cruise. They were never able to raise that back sail for the entire cruise and on a very windy day we barely felt the wind in our hair.
I felt that the boat was not fully operational for the sail and that we did not get a 2 hour cruise but rather a 1 hour cruise and motoring back in to the dock. I felt jipped and disappointed that when I asked about getting a credit toward another ride they told me "you got what you paid for". When I pressed further I was told that the back sail being operational or not did not matter since there were kids on board the vessel and they would have taken it easy anyway?
Anyway, I would like to go out again, however I am unsure at this point if I will or not.
Look forward to hearing from you.

| The trip was GREAT....I absolutely recommend it to others. The crew were GREAT....the vessle was GREAT.
The ONLY complaint I have was about a woman on-board who talked loudly, non-stop to the captain the WHOLE trip. I was disappointed that the captain didn't tell her he was busy with the ship or that he needed to point out sites along the route to other passangers. She had him so involved in conversation about her whole life and her family, job, niece, etc. etc., that no one could ask the captain about anything. Non-stop chatter for the entire 2 hours.
The captain was being nice to her, but the trip would have been much more pleasant if at least the conversation had been about the ship or the view or the historic buildings and sites along the way - I'm from out of town and don't know most of the buildings and had expected the captain to give us a little info during the trip. |

| My husband and I (from NJ) needed something to do with my parents, now in the 80's and who used to be avid sailors - transatlantic, caribbean, inland water way, etc. This was perfect - the only thing my father truly enjoys!
The best part was - 6 passengers & 3 Crew! Captain Cat, Kate & Tom were great. it was a delightful afternoon - glorious day & fabulous wind!
We'll do it again! |

| Not only was the boat in excellent condition and very clean, the crew were friendly and competent, and the guests were a fun group to be with. We all had a great time.
I highly recommend for tourists and locals alike. |

| My husband and I did not know what to expect - we worried about how crowded the boat would be, but we were very comfortable being seated in the back of the boat. It was a beautiful day and the captain and crew could not have been more gracious. |

| This tour was recommended by some friends that live in Manhattan and said this was a great way to see the Harbor, Lower Manhattan Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. We had gorgeous weather and the trip was really great. Wonderful staff and great service. We would highly recommend this tour. |

| After living in NY for 11 years, it's really difficult to find things to do with out of town guests that are slightly touristy but also enjoyable for me. This was the perfect activity. It's a little bit of sightseeing for the tourists, and a great couple of hours out on a beautiful sailboat for the New Yorker. I'm actually thinking about getting a group of my friends together to do it again next week! |

| This cruise was even better than I had hoped. Even my two teenagers liked it. The captain and crew were polite and knowledgeable (something you do not always find in New York). There might be other ways to see New York from a boat, but on this vessel you do it with style. I highly recommend this cruise whether you are from the area and looking for something a little different to do, or you are visiting from far away. |
