    I second Tyler's accurate review. There is 0 communication about where the fishes go after you catch them. You will not keep "your" fish you catch.: ENDQUOTE This is a flat out lie. Furthermore, the crew clean your fish for a charge. They are not slaves and this is true of EVERY BOAT on the Eastern Seaboard. You expect them to do this for free? Nobody works for free. Everyone KEEPS there fish. This complaint is positively bizzarre. Additionally, for newbies, try reading on brooklyn-fishing and find the section on newbies.

    Skippy was so awesome!! Thanks for all ur help!

    Wow had such a blast. Really appreciated their sanitizing and safety precautions too. Wow the whole team was so helpful and fun to be around. Very grateful for them and to be a able to celebrate a good friend and medical professionals birthday! God bless you guys. Can't wait to get out on the water again. See u soon!

    Great boat to fish especially if you've never done it before. The mates will help you and even show you how to catch fish. Whatever you catch they will clean and prep for you to your liking, just do remember to tip as this is where the majority of their pay comes from. Good mixed crowd on board meaning veteran and novice fishers, so no need to feel bashful if you've never fished before. My 10 year old step son caught fish his first time out.

    Cooler of Porgys we caught on the Marilyn Jean IV.

    Had a great day of Porgy fishing on the Marilyn Jean IV yesterday. Me and my buddy filled a cooler with really nice sized Porgys. Some Seabasd and Bluefish also came up but we didn't get any of those. I have been on a couple of other boats in sheepshead bay before both were half day trips which were nice but never got any "keepers" to take home. The Marilyn does full day trips from 7am to 3pm and the captain seriously works hard to put you on fish that you that you can take home. The crew on this boat is very personable and helpful, these guys had me rolling all day long. I can't wait to get back out on her !!

    BEST WEDDING EVER!!!…read more I was all set up at another venue to get married on October 17th, 2020. Three weeks before my wedding, I was informed they were going to need to cancel. Frantic and ready to cancel, my now husband had suggested a boat. I googled party boats in Brooklyn, and the Atlantis came up, and to be very honest, I was skeptical, I called anyway. I spoke to a lovely woman, her name was Kelly and explained the situation, and she was very sympathetic to what was happening. She set me up with an appointment with Amanda to have a tour of the boat. My husband and I got to the boat and met with Amanda and knew immediately we were in good hands. This woman is amazing. Leading up to the event date, there were so many changes due to hot zones and what have you, and several times I was ready to give up, and it was her who told me, you deserve to be a bride and have the wedding of your dreams, and she and her awesome team delivered at every single turn. From Jamie in billing, which was so sweet, Captain Fred and his beautiful wife who oversaw every detail and cruised us around the city (some of my guests did not even know we left the dock until they were invited to the top deck to see the cake cutting by the Statue of Liberty). All the servers that none of my guests waited for a drink, the food was out promptly nobody was waiting, they were awesome, and the food was delicious (get the lamb chop ordures). Everybody on the Yacht was amazing. Amanda, we want to thank you for everything you did for us. We could not have pulled off the best wedding of all time, all the little details, the communication between vendors. It was like working with a best friend easy peasy. From the very bottom of my heart, THANK YOU. Things happen for a reason. My husband and I are so happy the other place canceled on us; it would have been a nice event but nothing close to what an AMAZING EXPERIENCE all our guests and we had.

Jill at Queen of Hearts told me personally that they hire a third party that sells tickets when you get off the subway! Here are the tickets I bought for Pier 36 - Queen of Hearts!

    I bought the Living Social deal for the noon brunch cruise and went with my three friends (one who…read moregot seasick, another who was drowsy from taking motion sickness medicine... hah). Using a deal: Simple enough! If you buy a deal, email them your voucher number and the date/time of your preferred cruise (pick from their website) and they mark your reservation. If you're booking for more than one person, email your voucher numbers together in one email so you all get the same reservation. You then print out your voucher and bring it with you the day of. The Pink Lady was docked at Pier 7 and we checked in with Captain Anthony in 10 seconds. They board 15 minutes before departure, so my friends and I went to a nearby cafe to wait since it was really hot. Boat: Yacht is as depicted on their website. Two restrooms in the back (clean), food is placed on tables in the front along with coffee/tea on the first level, bar's on the other side. Everyone sits first come first serve, so if you're with a big group, get in line early so you don't get split up! We sat with a cute elderly couple and there were two extra seats at our table. Food & drinks: "Brunch" food/lunch buffet consisted of chicken, roast beef, ham and turkey wraps, salad, 2-3 different kinds of cold pasta salads and diced fruit. My friends and I were excited about the buffet and were a bit underwhelmed (we really wanted eggs! lol) but hey, you get what you pay for. Expect a 5-10 minute during the first rush. They ran out of pasta salad after the first long line, but had 2-3 platters of wraps. Drinks... my tequila sunrise tasted like sugar water, but my friend said hers was strong. Bartender was quick. Sights: You cruise from Sheepshead Bay to the Verrazano Bridge (one hour each way) and you get a great view of Coney Island and Seagate park! The captain also announces the sights as you pass by. Overall: Worth checking out for the views, especially if you love being out at sea,or have never been on a cruise around NYC. Don't expect too much from the buffet/unlimited drinks (and the cramped lines at the beginning), but you'll be full when you leave... and maybe drunk if you really do visit the bar often enough lol. Captain and crew members were very courteous; they help you get on/off the boat and also helped take away our garbage; tips are expected at the end.

We do a couple of group fishing trips and they always do their best for any special requests we have. This weekend we did a surprise for my brother and they were amazing. The crew is the best. They are friendly and always there to help. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. With all the changes in Sheepshead Bay they keep with the true feelings of the Bay. I can't wait to go back next month for another amazing group fishing trip. So if you are trying to figure out what to do for the day, definitely go fishing with the Sea Queen. It is great for the whole family. Even the kids enjoy it and it's great to hear them laugh when they catch a fish. Did I happen to mention, they are also very affordable? They have 1/2 day trips so it's great for those with not much time to spare. Just spending the day out on the ocean and spending time with friends and family, makes this the best day vacation. Thank you to everyone on the Sea Queen for keeping this amazing tradition alive for the next generation.

I felt like I was on the set of the Deadliest Catch! Patience is a virtue, and this crew definitely had it last Saturday. Let me first start off by saying that Captain Dom and his crew are totally chill, laid back, and just plain awesome! These are men and women that know the sea, and actually give you helpful tips on how to properly fish if this is your first voyage; really family friendly. Make sure you pack the following: 1) a towel to sit on 2) antibacterial 3) toilet paper (trust me) 4) pack snacks or sandwiches 5) CASH 6) BYOB!!!!! That's right!! They do offer drinks on board for a small cash fee, but you can totally fill your cooler up with anything your heart desires! SWEET! Usually, you are fishing for fluke, and fluke alone - but on our trip, people caught porgies, blue fish, sea bass and fluke! Loved the variety! Captain Dom took about well over an hour before we dropped anchor at our first fishing attempt. The further the day went, the further out we went, and the more fish were caught! What was the totals? Me: Seven - no keepers My Beau: Three - one was a keeper! We will DEFINITELY be back! Best way to contact? Try Captain Dom after 4 PM on a weekday to schedule!

    I had no idea you could go fishing off the coast of Sheepshead Bay!…read more This is a group fishing boat that has everything you need. For $100, they'll bring you out from 6:30am-2:30pm, provide the pole, hook, jig, and explain everything you need to know. If you caught a fish, they provided buckets, and at they ends they gutted your fish for you. Everyone working on the boat was very genuine, really helpful, and wanted us to have a great time. In the middle of June you're looking for Bluefish, porgy, striped bass, and fluke. We went on a new moon, and apparently on new moons and full moons, the gravity shift changes the current and makes fishing more difficult. Long story short, we didn't catch a lot, but we had a great experience. They also gave us extra fish to bring home which was really nice. If you're in NYC and want to go fishing, this is an accessible spot to go!
