Our Crew

You'll love our crew -- they're expert sailors who also know New York inside and out. They're fun, easy going people who can tie a square knot and rig the sails but also know the importance of a properly mixed cocktail. All charters take place under the command of a licensed captain and mate, as well as a standard crew. Photographers, waiters, DJs or special bartenders can be provided upon request.
