Experience premier service: NYC’s longest-running private sailing charter

We had an amazing experience with Captain L! He was incredibly attentive, professional, and made sure everything went perfectly for us. The whole trip felt smooth, relaxing, and very special thanks to him. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great time on the water!

Sail NYC's skyline aboard the Genesis, a beautiful classic sailboat!

We are still talking about our time aboard The Genesis! Eric was so welcoming to our family, ages 2 - 70! A true sailor, Eric took us on a two-hour sail from Chelsea Piers to the Statue of Liberty. He shared his endless knowledge about NYC as we passed spots of interest on the shoreline. Eric was super kind and patient with our 5-year-old grandson, allowing him to steer the boat. That experience was priceless. The Genesis is a wonderful sailboat that has been lovingly and meticulously cared for. Thank you, Eric, for helping us celebrate Nick's 70th birthday. It was perfect!

Affordable Yacht 27' Doral in Toronto

Had an amazing experience on the yacht — but honestly, the real highlight was the captain. Super friendly, very patient, and knew exactly where to go for the best views and photos. Even when we were running late, he didn’t rush us at all and made sure we still got the full experience. You can tell he genuinely cares about giving people a good time, not just finishing the trip. If you’re booking this, you’re in safe hands. Highly recommend.

David was a most excellent captain. We were having a special send off for someone extremely important to us and David went above and beyond to make sure we all had a great time. He even got out his accordion and sang a song for the woman of the evening which was very funny and very special. We will absolutely book again. Thanks David and Sara!
