Great experience on a spring evening. Boarding in the early evening for a 1.5-hour cruise. We had booked the cruise to the rhythm of jazz with a trio of musicians who serenaded the cruise. It was really very cool. The boat is comfortable, and the crew is very attentive. A very good atmosphere to enjoy and savor this evening. The sunset over New York and the passage by the Statue of Liberty are highlights of this cruise. The show leaves you speechless. We took this cruise as a family, and the children also loved it. They had as good a time as the adults. An excellent experience that must be done!

The water was calm after the storm the night b4. The Sky was blue, and the humidity was down on the River. It was beautiful night for romance

First off, I must give kudos to Reddit for recommending this is a must do activity for visitors to NYC. It was well with the trip from the beauty of the Chelsea Pier to the sailboat and the live jazz (at sunset no less) was a bonus!! The first round of drinks is included in the price!!! Loading of the boat is by section, so there is no need for long lineups, and everything went as smooth as silk. Pro tip - You do need a windbreaker as it does get cool on the water. Highly recommend even for 2nd or 3rd time visitors to NYC.
The music and drinks and the crew. My friend from Copenhagen was blown away and so was I. Sailing is the best way to see NYC skyline
Beautiful schooner. Wonderful staff. Just a lovely experience overall. The jazz band was fantastic, the wine was delicious and the views of NYC were just delightful. Being on the Hudson River in a beautiful schooner is such a treat. Well worth it!
Hello, Thank you for joining our jazz sail and sharing your thoughts. We are glad that you enjoyed your time with the band and crew and that the schooner provided a great platform for a lovely evening. We hope to see you again! Warmly, Classic Harbor Line

A beautiful fun event. I am New Yorker and the view from NY harbor is breath taking. The crew were wonderful, Bring a picnic dinner to make the sail even more memorable
Hello, We think the view from NY Harbor is breath taking too! Thank you for joining us and sharing your experience. We look forward to hosting you again on another cruise. Warmly, Classic Harbor Line
We enjoyed the city lights sail with jazz to celebrate our anniversary. The cruise was on the Americana 2.0, a large sailboat/schooner. The crew was amazing, the views were spectacular. We upgraded and purchased a whole bottle of champagne to celebrate. (one drink free comes with reservation). Note that all guests are above board for this cruise, and everyone has an assigned seating area (at least now during Covid). There were about 30ish people on board. It was a special evening!
Hello, We are very happy to hear that this was your way of celebrating your special day. Thank you for choosing us and sharing this experience with others. We hope that this becomes an annual event for you! Warmly, Classic Harbor Line
