Full description

Experience the most stylish means of viewing a New York sunset by sailing aboard the Schooner America. While sailing you will be treated to an alcoholic drink of your choice by an exceptional crew, as you watch the warm rays of the sun sink peacefully into the horizon. During your trip, take in the majestic colors of the sunset surrounding New York Harbor's skyline and iconic landmarks, such as the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island.

Step away from the hustle and bustle of the city with your favorite companions when you board this 105-foot classic sailboat. Perfect for romantic outings, entertaining friends from out of town, or just relaxing. This is sure to be an event you’ll want to experience again.

Heading south from Chelsea Piers and down the Hudson River to Battery Park, the schooner will pass by Ellis Island and sail out to the Statue of Liberty. Wind and time permitting, she will head toward Governors Island and breeze by the Financial District.

Amazing boat ride. Great crew, beautiful sights. Much better on a true sailing boat. Drinks service super smooth and we even got blankets when it got cold. Highly recommended
