great day with captain mike and his boat. he was easy to work with and very accessible for questions. the boat was perfect for cruising up and down the hudson and east rivers and mike provided history and other color along the way. i highly recommend nycbysea for a day or night to relax and enjoy ny/nj from the water.

We had the most wonderful afternoon on this excursion! Will was a knowledgeable, fun, and personable captain who was full of great facts about the city and who made us feel comfortable right away. It was such a unique experience to see the city from the water and go so close up to the Statue of Liberty, too! Would highly recommend this to everyone!!

What a fabulous way to see some of the famous landmarks of New York City. We booked at very short notice, managing to get a private 2 hour cruise with my wife and teenage son. We met our Captain Will at the marina, who then sailed us up the Hudson and East rivers, pointing out various landmarks, and stopping to take photos along the way. We have some great memories and highly recommend this tour if you get the opportunity. Thanks to Mike and Will for your professionalism. All the best for the future. David, Sam & Will (uk)
