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 did a private sailboat ride for my sister’s engagement! It was such a special day seeing NYC from the water, and David was an excellent captain. We got to bring our own wine and snacks, and I’ll definitely be going again!

I surprised my dad with a morning sailboat ride for Father’s day! We had the best time and loved every second of it! Captain Dave was great and was very knowledgeable. I am excited to go for another ride sometime in the future!!!

My boyfriend and I had the pleasure of sailing on Tara, a beautiful sailboat in New York City. Captain David took us around to see the Statue of Liberty and we viewed the beautiful NYC skyline. Captain David answered all of our many questions about the boat and the city, as he is very knowledgable. We had a wonderful time and I highly recommend this experience to New Yorkers and tourist alike.
