relaxing excursion, the staff are very friendly and nice. They dont bother you. Scenes are great. You get about 2-3 drinks which makes for a nice night.

Perfect way to end the week --- Friday night sail out in the harbor! Cares truly disappear, even if they return again on Monday.

Once is not enough

What was most troublesome to me, the captain spoke of in the very beginning......the tipping of the boat. I was nervous. Not after his talk. The crew was courteous and helpful. They were delightful...all three. They answered every question, but most people were pretty familiar with the city. They were very safety conscious. If I had any complaint, it was the the trip was too short!!! Seriously, I will do it again. It was a wonderful, wonderful experience. I've already written a review on Yelp....I want everyone to come because I want to know that this Schooner is always there. I've already suggested to friends that this makes a wonderful gift...which is how I got to go in the first place.

A Classy and Fun Way to Spend the Night

I took the sunset cruise and it was a perfect way to spend a warm evening. The captain and crew were very nice, and I appreciated the complimentary refreshments. While $50 may seem expensive, it is actually deal considering it is nightlife and you get a couple free drinks on the ship. Touring NY Harbor in a sailboat is definitely much more fun and interesting than the countless motorboats, some too big to even feel like you're on the water. This made for a very classy date, and there is also a valet or car pickup/dropoff circle right at the entrance to the pier, which is perfect for fancy car or limo service. I would recommend this activity strongly.

Wind was low, powered a lot. Sunset was wonderful as well as seeing the lights come on in Manhattan.

Fantastic in every respect

Our sail was fantastic in every respect: great group of travelers onboard, personal and happy crew members, fabulous weather and beautiful schooner. The crew went out of their way to interact with us, and to provide opportunities to the kids onboard to have a hands-on sail. It was exciting to witness the crew dealing with the sails. They also kept the drinks flowing even with all the work they had to do to work the sails. The two-hour trip felt generous and was very relaxing, and the sunset provided us to see the city in a wide variety of colorful views. We felt the price was a good value for this unique experience. Many thanks to Robert and the other crew members. We'll be bringing others back to sail again!
