A perfect short visual treat of lower Manhattan & around the Lady Liberty on a family owned small boat. Friendly/casual. - Just a perfect visual adventure on the water of lower Manhattan and around the Statue of Liberty for our young visiting guest, our niece. The vessel is privately owned by a couple. They are hands-on. The gal behind the bar is an owner and the captain is her husband. Their small crew is friendly and helpful. January has some advantages - less crowded, more space on the boat, more attention. My niece was able to visit the captain's deck and steer the boat for a bit. (Of course, under the captain's supervision.) No luxury, but comfortable, with pleasant music and a solid bar.

A short, pleasant sail in a boutique sized, privately owned and captained boat. Very nice crew. - A lovely experience. My niece and I had a wonderful time. Not a great weather, January. Yet it gave us an opportunity to chat with owners of the boat. Lady behind the bar is a friendly jovial gal and her husband is a captain. My niece had a chance to navigate (of course under the supervision and control of the captain). Maybe not a luxury vessel, but comfortable and offers nice selection of refreshments. We loved the size. Much nicer that large tourist boats of big companies. The time was perfect as well. This ride gives you a view of lower Manhattan and circles Statue of Liberty in a short time, in case you do not want or have time to spend hours cruising. Crew was friendly and attentive.

Great but a glitch - Great photo op for Lady Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge and a few other sites. Ship had adult drinks and basic snacks. Negative is the area you wait for the boat has no benches or sun protection which is unfortunate, esp when it's 92 degrees like it was on our day.

Only complaint would be... - Only complaint would be that it was very hard to hear the tour guide audio over the loudspeakers from the very back of the boat. At that point the sound is drowned out by the water and wake. How hard would it be to add a couple loudspeakers at the very back of the ship? One shouldn’t have to strain to hear the audio for something like this.

Inaccurate description - Nice cruise but description not accurate. We booked a 90 min cruise on New Years Eve and departed the port at 6pm. However, we returned at 6:55pm, 35 mins less than we had booked.
