Climb aboard for a peaceful sail away from the noise of the city. Enjoy views of the skyline, Ellis Island, and the Statue of Liberty.

The sail was definitley worth it. It was by far the best way to see the Statue of Liberty. It was a nice time to sit, relax and enjoy after the hustle and bustle of Manhattan. The sunset was amazing to watch as it set right behind Lady Liberty. Note: Bring some snacks/picnic (nice cheese and fruit etc..) it will make the sail that much more special. |

The Schooner tooled around New York Harbor, but did not venture towards or under the Brooklyn Bridge. This is a mistake. Also, it could have ventured under or near the Verrazano Bridge. For $100 per couple , it was a bust.
The crew was nice enough, and they supplied my wife with, perhaps, too much champagne, but all told, the crew was fine. |

This is our first time with the sail boat (we had been out on the Adirondak), and everyone in our party loved it. It's a great way to show first time guests to New York, a special perspective of the Manhattan landscape. Really, really nice crew! |

It really doesn't get much better than sipping chilled white wine while gently sailing by the manhattan skyline and Statue of Liberty as the sun goes down and city lights come up. The weather wasn't great the evening we sailed, heavy cloud obscured the sunset, and it was still a wonderful and memorable experience. The captain and crew were extremely friendly and hospitable. Highly recommended if you are looking for something off the usual tourist track or if you're looking to impress a date! |

This cruise was recommended to me by my Brother and another friend. So I took my girlfriend on it for her birthday. It was perfect. Capt Tom and his crew were awesome and I cant wait to do it again! |

I recently went on the 'Sunset Sail on Schooner Adirondack' with 17 colleagues from work. Although we could not move around much on the boat during the ride, it was a very pleasant experience. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed the attentive staff and gorgeous views/sunset. The boat itself was well-maintained and comfortable. I highly recommend this for a large or small group. |

I had a great time, but I'm not sure I needed the captain so vocal. He wasn't overbearing, but some of his jokes were a little weak. That's just my personal opinion though. Good times all around though. |
