| We live in NJ and booked the cruise as a part of an anniversary celebration. The trip was very enjoyable. The schooner was nice and the crew was excellent. Several rounds of drinks were served and delivered by a smiling crew. Although we went on a warm day it was still quite chilly on the water. The crew once again came through with blankets for all. If I were to do it again I would probably opt for the later cruise to enjoy the skyline all lit up. I would definately recommend the trip! |

| I had heard great things about this particular sail, and it absolutely lived up to our expectations. Though the weather was a little chilly and it started to mist during the sail, it was still a lot of fun! The crew was absolutely great and very professional! (Thanks Tom, Katie, Joe and Stewart!) This was also a very special date, as I proposed to my girlfriend right as we passed the Statue of Liberty! Again, I highly recommend this for any and all! |

| We took the last sail of the season (late October) and it was extremely enjoyable. Two in our party are sailors themselves and we all had a great time. The crew was very friendly and gracious and it was impressive to watch them work. Views from the boat are incredible. Our only criticism was that, since the sun sets early in late October, we would have preferred to leave the dock earlier to see more of the sunset (it was almost over by 6pm). But even so, we had a wonderful time and would recommend it to anyone. |

| Visiting from Scotland, had prebooked trip as a birthday treat. Moonlight cruise on the friday cancelled due to the weather, but managed to easily transfer to the last sail of the season on the sunday.
We had a fantastic time due to very experienced crew and friendly passengers.
The trip was definately the highlight of a 5 day tourist visit to the amazing city of New York.
Would recommend this sail to anyone looking for some thing a little different, however you do need to wrap up warm as it is cold on the water. |

| I suprised my mother with this cruise for her 60th birthday and we were a party of 8. I think. It was amazing - we lucked out with a fabulous crew and captain and a gorgeous crisp evening in October complete with a fat orange harvest moon that we watched rising over the brooklyn bridge. Anyway - i know that was specific to our trip, but really the trip is great for a large group or an intimate date - it's fabulous. 2 hours is the perfect amount of time and Manhattan is gorgeous all lit up at night. I couldn't reccommend it more! |

| By chance there was only one other couple on this eve sail besides us. The crew including the captain were great. My girlfriend and I asked for blankets and were supplied with as many as we needed.
This was the first time in my 70 yrs that I had this view of the NY-NJ harbor from this perspective. The sights were impressive. The captain knew the interplay of tides, winds and currents. All in all an experience that I can recommend to all and not just on a 70th birthday. |

| Took the sunset sail. Everything was perfect - the sunset, the almost full moon, the weather. It was great to watch the city take on its dramatic nighttime persona, to gaze up at the stars through the billowing sails, to feel the wind in my hair like an adventurer of a bygone era. For a better experience, try to sit closer to the front/bow. The crew was fun, respectful, and served more than sufficient drinks. The vessel was large enough to provide a degree of intimacy. Definitely bring layers of clothes. And don't forget your camera! A truly wonderful evening, one that begs to be shared with that someone special. |

| We left too late to see the sunset. Granted, the colors from the sun setting was gorgeous, we missed the actual sunset. Overall however I would definitely recomment this to everyone. Great views of the City. Great crew!! |
