Seacoast Sailing

A group of friends & coworkers decided to spend a few hours to kick off the summer on this private charter. It was such a great idea & I’m so happy we choose seacoast. Not only was Captain Dan friendly, his crew provided an exceptional experience in which we felt very comfortable & relaxed. Nothing really beats a sail along the Hudson with breathtaking views & champagne & lobster… oh & did I mention chocolate. Seacoast is a class act & I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to sail. Being that I’m an avid boat person I must say this beats any other company in the area! Five plus stars!!!

A friend and I decided to have our 30^th birthday bash by celebrating on boat. We decided to go with Seacoast sailing as the price was very reasonable and Capt. Dan was very nice on the phone and seemed very accommodating. I spoke to him about a particular date and time and he said he would hold it and would call me if anyone else was interested in that time as we were waiting for a headcount. We went on vacation for 2 weeks and left Capt. Dan with very specific instructions as to who to contact if we needed to absolutely put down a deposit for the specific time slot we had discussed. Long story short, we came back from vacation, left him several messages and he finally got back to us saying the time we wanted was booked. In a fury, we were very upset as we had a headcount very specific to that time slot. In the end, we ended up losing about 10 people that were originally planning on celebrating with us.
We did have a great time on the sail. The staff was very accommodating to our needs with refilling our beverages and passing out hor d’oeuvres. I just don’t know if I can handle the stress of an unstable booking again…

We didn’t even get a chance to go!!! The road was closed and we sat in traffic for an hour. Got detoured to Kearny. We couldn’t get anyone on the phone !! We ran red lights and drove like maniacs all to pass the entrance to the pier cause there is not one sign indicating that the boat leaves from there. So beware that the entrance is not marked and tucked back and you have to drive through the sidewalk it looks like to get in. Then there is no office to go to. Unreal !!! Waste of money time and patients.

We received a Groupon from our family for a 2 hour cruise which we booked on their website about 5 weeks in advance. Two weeks before our cruise was scheduled they notified us that it has been overbooked and they can no longer take us on our scheduled day. We conveyed to the company that there were no other weekends that work for us this summer and they conveyed they could not do anything. While I understand overbooking happens, we were very frustrated how they waited 2 weeks before our cruise to notify us. Either their systems are poor or they decided to privately charter the boat that evening and cancel all scheduled tours. I do not recommend this operator at all… there are plenty of other good companies in NYC.
