| Great!! We loved it so much we want to go back again.
We live in NY but it was so special to see NY from the sailing boat.
Highly recommended. |

| this was suprisingly fun. i live in NYC and still really enjoyed it. when they cut the motor to use the sails, its so quiet and relaxing out on the water. its not a 'tour' so there is no constant audio. great place for a date. and the boat sails smoothly, so no seasickness. |

I would do this every week if I lived in Manhattan

| WOW! Much more fun to see Manhattan from a peaceful harbor sail than from a miserable cab ride! It was a perfect day, perfect sailboat, perfect crew and perfect peaceful way to end the day! Much more fun than anything I have ever done in Manhattan! |

| We arrived about 10 minutes before 6pm. As we were about 50 yards away from the dock, we could see that passengers were still boarding the ship so we knew we were not late. When we approached the ticket booth we sood behind one or two other groups of people that we thought were there for the same trip. But when we heard the ticket booth woman say to the group ahead of us that they would be boarding the boat for their trip in 30 minutes, we then realized they were not waiting for our boat so we spoke up. I said something to the effect that we were here for the 6pm trip, not directed at any one person in particular since there was the ticket booth woman and a gentleman standing outside the ticket booth. Not realizing until later that the man standing there was the captain, he just ignored my statement. The woman in the ticket booth took our e-ticket and really didn't say much more. I wasn't sure if we were to get anything in return or not, so we boarded the boat not sure if we were set to board. Once underway, and not knowing sailing terminology, it was clear that the captain gave orders to one of the ship mates that once beverage service was to begin that he was to start with the "front" then the "main" then the "duece". Clearly this meant us since we were the only two passengers sitting in the middle of the "main" section. I thought it was quite rude for the captain of this ship to 1) ignore our presence at the ticket booth just because we were the last two to arrive and perhaps he didn't want any more passengers. And 2) to single us out to get served last just becuase we were the last two on board. Luckily, the ship mates were very kind and they served in order of how we were seated. And though we were the only two in the center of the "main", we were at the front of this section and the ship mate served from front to back. |

| I really enjoyed the sunset sail. It was nice to get out of the crazy city for awhile and look at it from afar. Very relaxing. Reasonably priced activity. I hope to go again soon! Bring food! |

| Went for a sail with my mom and boyfriend. The crew was very friendly and enthusiastic, and served us complimentary wine which adds to the relaxed mood. The weather was perfect, and the views--probably the best in Manhattan. This is my second time on the boat, and I'd go again! |

| The weather was great. The crew and skipper were friendly, efficient and professional.
There was enough wind to raise sails and shut off the motor.
On the negative side, there should be about six less customers aboard.
This would allow for a bit more elbow room and for the crew to easily manouver
while performing their duties so as not to need a customer to move out of
the path.
Regardless, an enjoyable cruise, and I would encourage others to go on this
trip.
Sincerely,
Mac McDermid (OUPV) |
