| The ride is amazing, the crew is fantastic! For two hours you can shed the hustle and bustle of the New York while learning a little history about the harbor and Ellis Island. The ride is well worth the cost of admission. I wish they had a longer tour than just 2 hours. Enjoy the ride you won't regret it! |

| The entire trip was excellent. As we were running a bit late (due to traffic - what else is new) we were contacted which allowed us to tell the coordinators that we would be there shortly. The trip itself was terrific, the weather was perfect, and steering the boat was also a treat. We had great fun and the trip was the highlight of our bachelor party weekend. |

| Trip was great. Robert was interesting and friendly. A number of us enjoyed the chance to steer. The weather helped. Nice trip around Gorvernor's Island. |

| My husband and I are experienced sailors and were happily surprised that the schooner Adirondack was essentially new (11 years old and beautifully designed), gorgeous (as a sailing craft and as a thing of beauty in its own right) and wonderful to sail. The captain was experienced and knowledgeable, the crew courteous and hard working (as the sailing is all done by hand, with no winches or mechanical aids) and the afternoon on the Hudson River truly glorious. We left Pier 50 and headed for the Statue of Liberty, tacking upwind on the outbound leg and reaching back to the pier, and every moment of the two-hour sail was pure joy. This is a jewel of a schooner and one of the most relaxing, unusual and thoroughly delightful activities that one can find in or around Manhattan. The views of the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island and lower Manhattan are the best! Everyone should sail the Adirondack -- whether a visitor or a native New Yorker. |
