This unique experience offers unlimited beer (snacks available for purchase!), creating the perfect setting to appreciate the stunning NYC skyline.
Whether you're a seasoned sailor or a first-timer, immerse yourself in the thrill of hoisting a sail or taking the helm of the historic Clipper City. Feel the massive, heroic boat beneath you, as a crew of six skillfully handles the sails, encouraging your active participation. Prefer to sit back and enjoy the ride? No problem – the adventure caters to every type of seeker, ensuring an epic experience for all.
With a remarkable length of 158 feet and masts soaring to 120 feet, the Clipper City comfortably accommodates 149 people, making it the largest passenger sailboat in the United States. Marvel at sails that dwarf houses as they reach towards the sky. The boat features waist-high railings, a spacious open deck (100 feet x 30 feet) with benches, hatches, and a raised quarter deck where the captain takes the helm. Throughout the journey, 5,000 feet of sail will be unfurled, offering a truly majestic sight.
Originally built as a lumber schooner just before the Civil War, the Clipper City has a rich history. Meticulously reconstructed from the original plans borrowed from the Smithsonian Institution, the ship has recently undergone refurbishment, preserving its historic charm. As you sail, you'll connect with the past while enjoying the present, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
