What To Expect

Statue of Liberty

We will get as close as possible to the Statue of Liberty for one of the best photo opportunities and view on the Harbor. Your captain has all the knowledge about her history from construction to the beautiful statue you see today.

Brooklyn Bridge

We will pass by the Brooklyn Bridge for a great photo opportunity. Your captain will give the history of the bridge including how it got its name. It is not as easy as it seems.

Lower Manhattan

You will experience the view of Lower Manhattan from the water. A view you will never forget. We will explain the architecture and history of the buildings including some unique stories on construction.

Ellis Island

Viewed from the water and your captain has wonderful commentary. We will explain the history of the architecture and the path immigrants took to get to America. The island is full of rich historical information that we will pass along. For example, no that is not graffiti on the building, we will explain as we glide by.

Governors Island

As we sail past the island we will explain the history and fun things to do! What is that round building? How did it get its name? What is that gray octagon building? Do people live there? So many questions and we have the answer. Governor’s island is a great place to visit for so many reasons.

We had an incredible time with Dave on his beautiful boat! My 84 year old dad particularly enjoyed it as we had the same kind of boat (Hinckley) when I was a kid. Dave was a wealth of sailing (and other) knowledge. We had as much time by the statue of liberty as we wanted.... incredible photos! Don't hesitate to book this unique and private experience.

Amazing experience! Booked this for a friends birthday and we had the best time! We were running a little late because of traffic and David was super accommodating and understanding. He is great, super knowledgeable and made sure we all had a great time! We were able to bring our own wine and music for the sail - highly recommend!
