| They do provide you with plenty of beverages, water, soda and beer. It was a wait before we got on the boat, apparently they were short a crew member.
When we finally did board, we had an unscheduled stop to go to New Jersey to pick up this crew member. It seemed to me to be awhile before they actually got the sails up and the motor off. I'm sure we got short changed on our time, and did not get our full two hours.

| While visiting NYC for the first time in July 06, we crammed as much into a short time as possible. Getting away from the hustle and bustle and high energy of the NYC street scene and setting sail aboard the Schooner Adirondack was the perfect way to spend an afternoon. We got to appreciate the city scape and get up close to the Statue of Liberty - made for awesome portraits! We will do this sail every time we go back. The crew of Captain Peter, Mary Pat & Michael were extremely accommodating, professional and personable. Relax a while and enjoy the wind in your hair and leave the hurriedness to the streets.

| My family had a great outing on the Adironack! Much nicer than going on a crowded sightseeing boat. The crew was fun and friendly. My 10 year old daughter and her friend were entertained and informed on history and on the correct sailing lingo by the all girl crew... which they thought was awesome! Enjoyed having complimentery drinks and sailing around the area! Hopefully will go back and take my wife on a sunset date aboard their yacht! |

| Have done a circle line tour, and wanted something new. The sailtour was so much better! The weather and the views were great.
Price is good and the service was pretty good too.

| It was a blast! Winds were up and our Captain (Michelle) 's enthusiasm was contagious. She turned the boat to catch the wind so we were virtually perpendicular to the water - - I was a bit nervous at first, but once I got used to it, had a lot of fun!!
Great with a group of friends!!

| I spend a lot of time on the waters around New York City - kayaking, ferries, water taxis, Circle Line - and the schooner Adirondak is one of the best on-water experiences I've had.
It was a moderately breezy day, and the crew set all the sails. We tacked down to the Statue of Liberty, heeling over enough that we had to hang on to keep from sliding to the deck rails. Then a straight run back past Chelsea piers, and more tacking to return to the dock.
Lots of opportunity to see other vessels and the skylines, Statue, Ellis Island, etc.
Crew was extremely competent and friendly.
Plan your trip to go on a day when the breeze is at least 8 mph so you get some good sailing in!
