| My girlfriend and I set sail on the Adirondack for our first trip to NYC. It was absolutely breathtaking to see the city from such a unique angle. The boat crew members were attentive and informative. Even though the weather wasn't fully cooperative (it rained a little), the staff kept our spirits high. Our time on the boat was a highlight of our trip, and we would recommend this to anyone visiting the city!! We had so much fun, will be coming back to do it again!

| We went on the day sailing trip. Everything was perfect - the boat was extremely clean and the crew was amazing. I would have liked a little description of the sights we were seeing (pointing out just the important buildings) but I didn't mind the lack of it as well because it didnt feel "touristy" at all and I loved that. The captain was Julian and he was simply amazing - we loved his enthusiam . The crew was very friendly pointed out some local hot spots. Overall, I think this was the best $40 I spent in NYC :). |

| I have been on the Adirondack numerous times in the 8 years that I have lived in NYC. On this particualr trip, the staff and captain were exceptionally friendly and accomodating and I loved that we actually sailed! I've tried a competitor and they are more apt to keep the boat level with the water if you know what I mean. One suggestion from an administrative point of view, however, is that another friend tried to join us last minute and was told that by Zerve that it was full when, in fact, the person at check-in said that there was plenty of space. It was too late at that point for our friend to join us. Unfortunate, and this needs to be corrected. |

| I have sailed on the Adirondack and the Imagine several times. Each occasion was a great event. The captain(s) and the crew(s) appear to be very competent and work very hard to ensure that all passengers enjoy the sail. (This past Sunday our captain was Julian, and our party of four felt very confident in his ability to afford us a safe, happy sailing experience.)
I feel that if more people knew about the sailing vessels from the Chelsea Piers, more passengers would be sailing. I initially found out about the ships from my own personal searching on the Internet for sailboats from Manhattan. I have never seen an advertisement describing the sails; more publicity would be valuable. |

| If you cannot make it to the Hamptons or to the Jersey Shore or any other seaside getaway, this boat tour gives you a 2 hour break from the hustle and bustle of the big city. The day time sales are fabulous, you get to see a different perspective of the BIG city without all of the noise and crowds. |

| This was definitely the highlight of our week in New York City. The crew and staff were extremely accommodating and friendly (they even rescheduled us free of charge when it turned out I had inadvertently booked our sail for a previous day.) They patiently answered all of our questions about the boat and area and seemed genuinely enthusiastic about their work. This is a great way to get a break from the incessant pace and experience a completely different side of the city. |

| The sailboat was beautiful- and big- first time on one- when those sails went up- and the wind took hold- what a feeling and experience- my biggest complaint- the 2 hours went way to quick!!!!- I wanted more.
