Do not, do not, do not consider mooring your vessel at this marina, even for an overnight, if you…read morecan avoid it. The constant turbulence will cause substantial wear and tear, if not major damage, to your boat. The constant rolling at the dock tore a chock out of my toe rail within a day. It was as difficult to furl my mainsail at the dock as on the water on a rough day. Cooking and sleeping aboard are torture. The amenities provided are mediocre at best, but even if they were excellent, would not override the hazards of this poor location for a marina. I would rate this place zero stars, if that were an option.

I can't believe I've been in NYC for 20+ years and I've never done this sailing before. Although…read moremaybe it's a good thing that I waited this long to do it with Eric who made the experience unbelievable. It was a perfect day for sailing (nice breeze, sunny but not hot, clear skies, and not choppy water). This is definitely an activity that I will come back for. Eric is incredibly knowledgeable about NYC's history and shares it all. His boat is gorgeously kept and is incredibly comfortable and modern with a traditional feel. More importantly you can tell he enjoys what he does, which makes it amazing for those sailing with him. It's also a very relaxing experience. We went out on the 4 hr tour and it went by so incredibly fast! If you have the time I definitely recommend doing the 4 hr as it's the perfect amount of time to enjoy the experience. However, if you don't have the time I very much encourage taking the shorter tour so you can experience a great time. A must-do in NYC!
