Experience New York by water on this 2-hour sail aboard Schooner Adirondack, an 80-foot, 2-masted schooner inspired by the pilot schooners of the 1890s. Sit back and relax as the crew raises sail and the boat effortlessly glides along the Hudson River and by Manhattan's iconic landmarks. Sail past World One and Manhattan's towering financial district, Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty. Great for families who want to sail and see the sights!

Great experience and would recommend to all. My brothers and I set sail for a bachelor party weekend and could not have been more pleased. Shaman, Lisa and Mack were an amazing crew. Knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. It started to rain, but no worries, the crew broke out ponchos for everyone and the fun continued as the drinks flowed. Will definitely do it again.

This was a terrific cruise, and a far more unique experience than a crowded motor excursion boat. I'm a sailor, so it was interesting to watch how Captain Ray and her crew handled a 105' traditional gaff-rigged schooner that, to my surprise, is only 12 years old!
The views were unsurpassed - you get 360 degrees on a sailboat - in comparison to most motor yachts. Winds were light, so we motorsailed down to the Statue, with a very crowded harbor in front. This was expected on a weekend day. But what wasn't expected was suddenly being swarmed by a fleet of cigarette boats - at full speed! - passing in front and behind us as they headed up the Hudson. Captain Ray handled it with assurance; I think maybe she dropped the (electric) propulsion into idle for a bit.
Drinks and a friendly crew rounded out the experience. WELL worth the price; a steal actually.
I wished for more wind, but of course we're at the whims of our schedules and mother nature's schedule. There's a terrific photo of America 2.0 on a solid heel in a fresh breeze on the company website below. Looks marvelous!

All of it, especially when my sister steered the sailboat and hoisted the sail. The crew was very friendly and accommodating. You can tell they enjoyed what they do.

Worth every dollar spent!!! The staff was attentive and experienced of course the plus of a woman captain. The boat was beautiful not overcrowded and can’t beat the views of NYC & Lady Liberty up close!!!!

The vessel itself is an absolute gem, especially if you are into your sailing and like your classic boats. Crew was super friendly and accommodating. Don't think there is a better way to take in New York from the water. Would highly recommend.
