It’s easy to do a ‘booze cruise’ or a ‘jazz cruise’ from Battery Park exploring the Hudson River up to the Statue of Liberty. But for that, you’re on a crowded tourist boat and only on the water for a bit. Imagine instead to come in on a sailboat, entering into the City through the East River, down past the UN building all the way to the Brooklyn Bridge, then explore the waters facing Battery Park and Ellis Island. It’s a unique experience in Manhattan, a good day trip you will never forget.
