Sailing with Style and Class
The Adirondack Sailboat Luxury Sailing Boat NYC is a meticulously crafted replica of 1890s pilot schooners, designed by renowned naval architect John Scarano in 1994 and launched into NYC’s harbor in 1999. Built from white cedar with fir framing, it spans 80 feet overall with a deck length of 65 feet and a draft of 8.5 feet. Its twin masts rise over 70 feet above deck, supporting nearly 2,000 square feet of sail—delivering both majestic presence and swift performance.
While deeply rooted in history, the yacht benefits from modern enhancements such as a cut-away keel, separate rudder, and lighter displacement, granting quicker handling and agility—ideal for elegant harbor cruising
Certified to carry up to 49 passengers, the Adirondack Sailboat Luxury Sailing Boat NYC is perfect for intimate gatherings, private events, and special celebrations ranging from birthdays to romantic sunset sails
Whether you’re planning:
Weddings, with vows exchanged gently against the Manhattan skyline,
Private parties or milestone celebrations under towering sails,
Corporate outings that fuse elegance with scenic views,
Romantic moonside sails or sunset celebrations—this sailboat sets the standard.
Guests enjoy polished teak decks, gleaming mahogany trim, and a genuine atmosphere of maritime elegance—combined with seamless modern service such as bar offerings and platter-style catering
Departing from iconic Chelsea Piers, the Adirondack Sailboat Luxury Sailing Boat NYC glides past landmark sites like the Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Empire State Building, and the dramatic Manhattan skyline—especially breathtaking at sunset.
