This was a last-minute decision, suggested (pleading, begging) by my 4-yr-old grandson. I thought the crew would tell me that he was too young, but that wasn’t the case…..AND, they had the right size life jacket on board for him. It was a beautiful, clear night with a calm river but enough wind to shut the engines down and get under sail as we neared the Statue of Liberty. Nature kicked in with a magnificent sunset as a backdrop for the incomparable Lady Liberty and everyone got to take as many breathtaking photos as they wanted to. The crew were outgoing, fun and hard-working; they were responsive to requests for blankets even when they were in the midst of swinging booms and drinks being served. It was a wonderful time, even for this native New Yorker. And my grandson was enthralled by the sails, the quiet and the brilliant view of the Statue.

This was our second time on the Shearwater, and it was delightful in every way! The crew was friendly and welcoming, and it was fun to watch how coordinated and competent they were in the operation of the boat - it was smooth sailing all the way. The trip was relaxing and everything we hoped for. I highly recommend this experience!

Fast exhilarating ride! Crew were friendly, chatty. Be sure to tip them they do this 3 times a day. I took the day off with a friend and went down to the city and finished it off with a sunset sail. Sit on starboard side for a great view of the lady if going on sunset sail, A perfect, lovely evening! Thanks
