One of the best experiences you can have in NYC. Incredibly relaxing and beautiful views, beautiful sailing vessel and the staff and sailing team were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout the trip. Highly recommend and would certainly sail with them again in the future.

Words can't even begin to describe how PERFECT our private charter sunset cruise was on the Schooner America 2.0! This was the rehearsal dinner activity chosen by our son and his fiancée for the evening before their wedding. Everything was absolutely fabulous! Meghan in marketing was a delight to work with and never tired of answering all of our questions- she made sure that every detail was taken care of and helped us choose the appetizers and drinks that were served... all of which really were delicious! The views of Manhattan and the Statue of Liberty at sunset were breathtaking. Captain Shanan was fantastic as well. During the cruise, when we could see rain over Manhattan, she stopped the ship to allow the storm to pass, allowing the happy couple to take the wheel for some iconic photos of them "sailing into their new life together!"
