| This is the third time I've gone out on the Adirondack. The crew is friendly and knowledgeable and the sail itself is so much fun. It's a great activity to take out-of-town guests on or someone who you want to impress with something new and exciting. The boat always leaves on time and gives you amazing and unique views of both the New York and New Jersey sides of the Hudson. The most breathtaking part of the sail is floating right underneath the Statue of Liberty. She is so beautiful from the river. There is no other view like this one. They provide the drinks but bring a picnic lunch and it's 2 hours of relaxation and unique perspective. The one piece of advice that I would give future travelers, which has nothing to do with the service provided by the sail company, is to be prepared if you get motion sick. On my first two sails, I had absolutely no problem. But on my last sail, the choppiness of the river and the wake from other boats made us a little queasy. Prepare in advance with some Dramamine and you won't regret it. Also, on our most recent trip, it was a glorious sunny day in the 80's. I, of course, forgot sun block and we felt it later that night on our burned noses, foreheads and necks. Again this has nothing to do with the sail company and just more to do with common sense on our part. A little prep in advance and it's a guarantee that you will have an amazing time. |

| I wanted to give my friend's daughter, who is a young adult, a view of the NYC harbor on her very first trip to the Big Apple. As it turned out, she experienced two firsts; an incredible view of the harbor and her first ride in a sail boat. She was blown away by both experiences. We had a relatively small number of people on our beautiful schooner and as we passed other boats that were just loaded with tourists, we felt very special. The two hours that we spent at sea felt like just the right amount of time. We passed very close to the Statue of Liberty and other attractions and got some great pictures. Captain Tom and his crew did an excellent job. We never missed the canned tourist dialog and Captain Tom was always there with answers to any questions that we might have had. Even if you have done the big boats, you have to do this sail. I highly recommend it. |

| The boat, the crew, the service, the sailing...all were great. We had a cold, windy day but the crew made the best of it and really sailed the boat. It was great fun. Can't wait to get back out there! |

| My sister and I decided to try this out and we enjoyed ourselves. We both agreed that it would have been more fun to see the city at night, but I would recommned the activity to anyone looking to try something different. The staff was friendly and helped us take some nice photographs! |

| Spent a fantastic afternoon on the Adirondack. Bright sunshine, stiff wind. Exhilarating trip round Statue of Liberty, and more gentle, conversational return. All the crew welcoming and knowledgeable. Saw all the obvious sites and some less so, such as the Frying Pan and bar/restaurant at the end of Pier 66. Recommend wholeheartedly. |
