Sunset Sail aboard the Schooners Adirondack

We made the sunset sail on the schooner Adirondack under absolutely ideal conditions. The weather was beautiful, the wind was adequate, and the water had enough chop to it to give a feeling of sailing at sea. Under these conditions, the crew was able to use the vessel's full complement of sails, which is not always the case. Once we made our way away from the mooring area, we were, as the captain described it, "really sailing," and not reliant on mechanical power at all. Under these conditions, the experience was just unforgettable. The ship moving easily and silently through the water, covering distance fairly rapidly and maneuvering among the other craft in the Hudson River and New York Bay was everything I could have hoped for from this experience. The crew seemed to be quite competent, and did their nautical work quite well. They also served complementary glasses of wine to all those who were interested and interacted easily with the guests. There were comfortable places to sit, and the surrounding panoramic views of the skylines of New York City and New Jersey in the rapidly changing light of sunset were quite beautiful. In short, under ideal conditions of wind and weather, the sunset sail on the Adirondack was absolutely unsurpassed. I cannot recommend it highly enough.

Thanks for every thing.

Everything was perfect. I purchased the tickets as a suprise gift to my boyfriend it was wonderful. I couldnt have asked for a better night.

Great trip, crew and captain were entertaining and extremely capable, service on board was superb. One of our friends is an accomplished sailor of many years experience and he was impressed by the boat and crew performance. Did I mention the spectacular views we were able to see?

I sent my folks and my roommates on this trip and they were completely satisfied with the trip. They said it was definitely worth the money. Amazing staff and generous with the drinks.

My husband and I took the sunset cruise on August 24th to celebrate our anniversary. The weather was spectacular and the sunset was beautiful! The sights were incredible and the crew were tons of fun!! I would highly recommend this cruise and I am already encouraging a group of our friends to get together to do this another evening soon.

It is just so romantic even if you are on your own.

drinks were great. Staff was phenomenal. Kids next to us didn't bother anyone as they were thoroughly entertained, all the groups around us had fun AND we got to see the Liberty House Restaurant where my wife and I got married on our 1 year anniversary. Home run. Thank you

We enjoyed that very much and the crew was excellent !

Prompt, well run tour and boat. Deckhands were excellent and helpful. Two hours well spent and views of the city not possible from anywhere but the water.
