Q&A

Q: What happens if the weather is bad on the day of our sailing tour?

A: If the weather looks threatening, Empire Yacht Charters will reach out to you to discuss rescheduling options. They try to give you as much notice as possible to ensure you have a great experience. I've heard they’re really accommodating about finding a new date that works for you!

Q: Is this sailing tour suitable for young kids?

A: Yes, it's great for families! Empire Yacht Charters provides infant life jackets and Captain Andy knows how to keep the kids engaged with fun stories about the landmarks. Just keep an eye on them, as the deck can be a bit slippery at times.

Q: What should we wear for the sailing tour?

A: Layering is key! It can get a bit windy on the water, even when it’s warm out. I recommend wearing comfortable clothes and bringing a light jacket. Don’t forget your sunscreen and sunglasses too! You want to enjoy the sun while you're on that beautiful yacht.

Thinking about booking the Private Classic Sailboat Tour for my anniversary!

Hey everyone! I'm planning a surprise for my partner’s birthday and found this Private Classic Sailboat Tour in NYC with Captain Andy. It sounds perfect for a romantic day out! Has anyone done it? I’ve heard the views of the Statue of Liberty are amazing. Would love to hear your experiences!

Can’t decide between a sailboat tour or a dinner date for our anniversary!

So I’m torn. I want something special for our anniversary and was looking at the Private Classic Sailboat Tour. But then a fancy dinner sounds nice too. Has anyone done both? How does the sailing experience compare? Any advice would be helpful!
