Manhattan by Sail

As more people are staying close to home with their families this summer, many have yet to explore the New York City waterways. Readers can now take advantage of the local New York City Harbor by heading out on one of Manhattan By Sail’ s (http://www.manhattanbysail.com ) river excursions.

This summer climb aboard one of Manhattan’s magnificent seafaring vessels, the prohibition-era Shearwater Classic Schooner and the topsail schooner Clipper City, with the finest deck-hands a landlubber could hope to find, and see the gems of the Harbor for a first-mate family adventure.

The Clipper City sets sail from her dock in lower Manhattan’s North Cove Marina and South Street Seaport daily at 2:15 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. for 90 minutes. Ticket prices for children 12 and under are $17 and ticket prices for adults are $39, seniors 65 and up are $35.

The Shearwater Classic Schooner lowers her mast Monday through Saturday at 12:30 p.m. and 2: 45 p.m., and on Sunday at 2:00 p.m. around the Manhattan skyline. Ticket prices for children 12 and under are $25, adult tickets are $45, and seniors 65 and older are $38 for a thrilling 90 minute expedition. Ticket prices include one complimentary beverage.
