| The Day Sail experience was fantastic! You are able to see NYC from a entirely different perspective from the water. It is truly a unique experience. The crew was great, very nice and entertaining. Overall I would highly recommend it to anyone in NYC, local resident or tourist. |

Great Way to see New York City

| We originally had tickets for a sunset sail. The predicted weather was for rain and heavy winds. We were able to easily re-schedule our sail for a few days later when the weather was forecast for sunny skies.
We were very happy to show our guests from Germany the beauty of the New York
coastline. We saw the "Waterfalls" from the water. They were stunning. We had a spectacular view of the Statue of Liberty and New Jersey. The staff was friendly, professional and attentive. I would have liked them to be better acquainted with the buildings we saw. None of the staff was able to identify the buildings we asked about. My husband gets sea-sick and he was very comfortable on the schooner Adirondack. I would take this sail again. |

| From the amazing views of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty to the thrill of canting over under full sail to the natural enthusiasm of the crew this was a very memorable experience. |

| My wife and I really enjoyed our trip on the tall ship Imagine. My only regret was that we did not sail out farther past the Statue of Liberty. I would have gladly paid extra for a cruise up the Hudson. The captain and crew were simply the best. |

Excellent and Easy

| As a tourist from Canada, I have visited NYC twice now and booked the schooner sail with friends both times. It is the best value for the dollar, an overall tour of Manhattan and surrounding points of interest, and SO relaxing. The first time, I was worried about motion sickness, but the sail was relaxing and smooth. The crew are friendly and experienced and answer any questions about the sights you might have. After 2 hours of soaking in the sun and sights and floating around the river with complimentary beer or soda, we got off the schooner feeling refreshed and relaxed. We felt as if we had been at the spa for a massage!! I'll definitely be back!!! |

| Sailing today was absolutely fantastic. We enjoyed the boat, the sights and the fine attentive crew! I recommend this journey to local New Yorkers as well as tourists just kicking back and enjoying the ride. I was pleasantly surprised at how much actual sailing we did and how short a time the motor was used. |

Exciting sail, competent crew, spectacular views

| I would come again as this cruise was so enjoyable. The staff and captain were very accommodating.
The ship was well designed and even when we heeled, the guests remained comfortable.
The crew engaged with the guests and were informative of the points of interest.
Advertising in NYTimes, The New Yorker, WSJ with photo of the Schooner that was so inviting, should generate sales [SAILS!]
Thank you for such a pleasant afternoon.
