Our group included lifelong New Yorkers as well as out-of-town guests experiencing New York for the first time, and everyone was equally impressed. Seeing the city from the water offers a whole new perspective, and Adam and his crew create such a welcoming, fun, and comfortable atmosphere. As a host, Adam makes everything easy and seamless. Whether you're a local or visiting for the first time, a trip on the Popeye is an absolute must-do!

You don't always realize the beauty of the city standing so small in the midst of the concrete jungle, but being able to be out on the waters and looking at the expansive skyline was awe inspiring! Shout out to Captain Erin for showing us an AMAZING time and for being so hospitable. If you are able to request for a Captain, please ask for Captain Erin. She helped us get all the wonderful shots of the city and showed us gorgeous views in the time we had with her. She even helped us take some really cute photos - thank you for that! Thank you again for showing us the most magnificent views and for being our captain, Captain Erin!! So grateful for you and the experience! * Pro Tip: in order for us to not scuff the boat, we ordered silicon covers for our shoes - this helped a ton with maintaining cleanliness on our Captain's boat and also allowed us to keep our shoes on during the trip!

They even have a cozy lounge area at the front of the boat where we could relax and take in the views. The boat also has a comfortable cabin with everything you need to spend the day feeling fresh and comfortable. We felt completely safe and so well taken care of throughout the trip. You can really tell how much they love sailing and sharing the experience with their guests. We'll always remember this as a true sailing adventure. If you're looking for a unique way to experience New York, I couldn't recommend it more highly.

The boat was clean and comfortable, easily fit our group, and Captain Jack was friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly experienced (he holds a U.S. Coast Guard Masters License, so you're in good hands). The views along the Sound were gorgeous, especially as the sun started to set. He was flexible with our timing and made the whole experience feel personal rather than like a generic tour. Whether you're looking for a dinner trip, a sunset cruise, or just a relaxing afternoon on the water, I highly recommend reaching out. Will definitely be booking again for a future occasion.

I arrived for the 12pm trip and was informed it was cancelled when I arrived at 1120am. I took one star off for this. It was a little frustrating so I'm trying to save you that same frustration. I ended up taking the 215pm one. The cruise itself is really nice, the Jamaican tour guide ( I don't recall her name, but that's how she referred herself at the end) was really great. She explained everything from the buildings, bridges, Ellis island and the Statue of Liberty. You get a really good photo opportunity of the Statue of Liberty. A recommendation would include getting on the top floor of the ship and standing on the right side. Everything is explained from that side so you will have the best front row view of everything. The trip itself is 90 minutes and it flew by. Bring a jacket with you as it's very windy on the ship. I'd also say to bring some water because you may get thirsty. They sell beverages on the ship but I did not purchase any. If you are going to tip the tour guide make sure to have cash, when you exit the ship they will be there with a bucket for your tips. They also take a photo of you with the Brooklyn bridge behind you, you can get a good view or even better with your own phone from the ship. Just something to consider as well! The ship was a bit rocky so if you get seasick take some pills before hand.

I specifically chose the JC port because it takes you around the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island (two attractions I don't visit too often). Whereas the Hoboken one takes you along the city skyline which I always see lol I will say if you get seasick please be sure to take your dramamine ahead of the trip to ease your nerves because it does get a bit wavey on the boat. The boat is BYOB (beer, wines, ciders, seltzers) nothing harder than that or you won't be able to board the boat. You can also bring on easy cleanable snacks. Overall really cool and different experience in the NYC area and I'd for sure do this again!

I came across a deal though Living Social & figured why not give it a try…read more The deal was for after work cruise on Fridays u have to make reservations online & then u are set. My friends & I were here this past Friday , boarding is at 7 & departs by 730. Once settled we got some drinks & enjoyed the views. I had some Vodka & cranberry , this was not bad decent drink my friends had Jack & coke & Malibu & pineapple also not bad. First round drinks was reasonably priced think it was $27 this is not bad but they do offer an unlimited option for $50 this is a pretty good deal specially if u plan on having more than 2 drinks , we ended up getting this for the rest of the cruise. They serve food buffet style u can purchase for $10 not terrible if u are hungry one of the girls decided on getting some rice , chicken , ribs , plantains & potatoes not bad. The boat itself is ok they don't seem to put a lot of effort into making it look nicer it can probably benefit from some sprucing up maybe new paint , decorations etc. The real winner here is the lovely city views really can't go wrong specially on a nice summer day. Good music, drinks were good , food was ok prices & service at the bars were not bad this was a good deal to try a nice way to spend a few hours doing happy hour differently.
