    what a great morning on the water with Ian, would definitely recommend this trip! We had beautiful weather and got up close to the Statue of Liberty and had amazing views of the Manhattan Skyline. Ian was a pleasure to sail with!

    Gage_H, Sep 2023
    Best way to see New York, hands down. Captain was knowledgeable and very skilled. We went out just as described and docking was expert level.
    Great trip

    The captain was very knowledgeable about all the landmarks and very friendly with the all the customers treated everyone with respect. Will definitely book again. Thanks Ian
    Best way to see the harbor!
    Perry_D, Jul 2023
    Seeing the Statue of Liberty was the best!! It is the best way to see the harbor. Our captain, Ian, was a terrific guide. I did not want the trip to be over.
    Best way to tour the skylines by water
    Leslie_D, Jul 2023
    This was the highlight of our entire trip. Spending 2 hours on the water just enjoying the views is the perfect way to start your trip. We were lucky and it was a very small group, just us and another couple. It was peaceful and relaxing. Avoid the highly populated tour boats. You won’t regret taking this sailing tour. .
    Peaceful and comfortable trip

    Ian and Tyler were knowledgeable, friendly, and very nice. It was a picture perfect day (which isn't controllable but still made my experience better for it). My sister-in-law was worried about getting wet and getting sea sickness... neither occurred. Overall, I would happily book this again.
    NY HIGHLIGHT

    The highlight of our NY trip! I recommend this experience 100% to complete your trip! There was nothing like it.
    Wonderful sailing tour!

    Truly amazing.
    Sheepo, Jun 2023
    Sailing boat in very small groups is the best way to see The Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge and NY skyscrapers and skyline up close. It is just a wonderful experience. Highly recommended.
    The only way to see NYC from the water.
    Justin_H, May 2023
    Great way to see NYC. Highly recommend this over big boat cruises. Captain and trip were both excellent.
    Great Experience!
    Courtney_M, May 2023
    Great experience. Ian was very knowledgeable throughout the trip sailing. There is an extra photo of you want him to take a few photos but it is worth it. He takes photos at the world trade, Statue of Liberty and Brooklyn bridge. Would highly recommend this if you want to see the city from a different perspective on a sunny day.
    Truly a great experience!
    Sarah_B, Nov 2022
    For our second time in NYC we wanted to do something original and have not been disappointed! This sailing tour is amazing, we are only 6 onboard which is great if you want to avoid the tourist crowd and the views of the city are amazing! I would definitely do it again!
    One of the highlights!
    Caroline_G, Aug 2022
    This was one of the highlights of our trip! Lovely sailboat ride to see all of the major sites! Capt Andrew was awesome!
