Beautiful city lights, great staff

Such a nice staff and of course the view of the city at night is spectacular! We left from Chelsea Piers and went toward the Statue of Liberty, getting close to the lady. We then went over to the Brooklyn Bridge ant then back to Chelsea Piers. I’ll be back on this cruise again this fall for my annual girls trip!

Yes, you should book it! You won't regret it.

The crew was fantastic. They were attentive and made sure everyone felt safe and relaxed. It started to rain a bit on us and they had rain gear for everyone! It was the first time my 16 year old had ever been sailing and loved it. The actual ride was smooth and the sights and sounds were incredible! I'd highly recommend doing this if your looking for something to do with your teens or for a romantic evening out. It was a fantastic end to an incredible trip!

A beautiful night on the Hudson

I liked talking to the crew and learning about the nautical Highschool. It was a full moon,calm waters beautiful skyline. Great way to see NYC lights at night!

The Perfect Evening

We had an absolutely PERFECT evening! From the helping hand to get on the boat to the passing out of a complimentary cocktail, we felt pampered - a LOT! The ride and the view were the cherries on top.

Operator response

A must do while in New York

We booked this boat trip last minute and I’m so glad we did. The boat was great, the staff was helpful and courteous and the views from the sailboat of NYC, New Jersey and the Statue of Liberty were fabulous. We really wanted to do this boat tour on 9/11 while we were in New York so we could see the lights from the Trade Center buildings. It was a really neat way to remember and experience the memorial on the 20th anniversary.

Nice time but loud crew was irritating

It was a beautiful night, boarding was easy, boat was nice and we had a nice time. It would have been 5 stars if we didn’t have to listen to the 3 crew members talk loudly in the middle of the boat about their personal lives and other random topics. There was no place on the boat to escape the conversation (we tried). Part of the trip is enjoying the peace - which was hard to do with their asinine chatter.

Go on this night sail!

Scenery and weather were excellent. Captain Cat and her crew were great. The sloop “Adirondack” built in 1992 is maintained in pristine condition and the whole experience was very pleasurable.

Horrible anniversary idea

Beautiful scenery, just cold, no drink selection, food, music, nothing! P is very uncomfortable. Don’t seat nobody else there for that price.
