#1 Sailboat Charter In NYC ★★★★★
Perfect experience for a family, small group of local friends, or tourists. Stunning city skyscapes and incredible sunset views! Gino and Caleb were an amazing staff - friendly, knowledgeable and so accommodating. The night had an unexpectedly perfect ending with a fireworks show over the Hudson, too. Could not recommend more!
We LOVED our sail today! Captain Caleb and Gino were both knowledgeable and accommodating. My family and I went to celebrate my birthday. We highly recommend the sail to anyone looking to see NYC and the sites from a different vantage while enjoying the water and an awesome boat ride. We can’t wait to do it again!!!!
Wonderful brunch cruise along the Hudson River. We were made very welcome, the captain and crew really looked after us, very relaxed. This is a must on your trip to NYC. I will definitely do this again on this gorgeous boat! Thank you for such a lovely time.
We loved our experience with them! Boarding was super easy and the captain was experienced and witty. They set us up with drinks and music right at the beginning and really let us do our own thing the entire trip checking in to see what we needed often. None of us had any experience on a boat but anything we needed to know they explained early on (not a whole lot other than safely moving around the boat because they handled everything). All 6 of us would do it again, loved it! Phenomenal way to view the city skyline and Statue of Liberty!
We had such a wonderful time sailing yesterday. The boat was just the right size, the captain and crew provided excellent service. We hope to make this a monthly experience with you all. It was one of the most peaceful experiences we had in nyc. It was an excellent way to experience the city.
We decided to treat ourselves for a birthday/Anniversary private sail around the NY harbor. This sunset sail was absolutely beautiful and totally exceeded our expectations. Thank you Caleb and Gino for a wonderful evening.
Wow !! what a beautiful ride. The captain and crew were so accommodating, kind, and helpful. They really went out of their way to make it the best evening it could be. Thank you! Highly recommend, and hope to be back!
I had the absolute pleasure of working with Captain Martin this year and highly recommend sailing and/or boating with this company! All of the staff and crew were wonderful and I plan on returning as a passenger for years to come. Sailing in the harbor is a must for all NYC residents and visitors!

Now, let's paint the picture: you and your friends on a yacht and an unforgettable celebration cruising along New York's bodies of water, surrounded by jaw-dropping views of Manhattan’s bright lights, and the old-school glamor of Coney Island and Lady Liberty - all while you’re sipping cocktails at a boat bar and enjoying live music onboard.

Whether you're in the mood for a themed party on a luxury double-decker, a lobster feast on a dinner cruise , or just a laid-back happy hour float, there's a boat with your name on it!
So, what are you waiting for? Check out these boats and set sail for a summer filled with nautical adventures!
What types of party boats and boat cruises can I rent in New York City?
Whether you're eyeing a private party venue for a corporate sightseeing tour around Manhattan , dreaming of a yacht birthday extravaganza, or planning to toast an anniversary on a sleek motor yacht, NYC's private boats are your oyster! Among all the vessels for hire in New York, we have highlighted the following categories:
- Luxury yacht charters - In NYC, you can rent private luxury yachts from eight feet to opulent mega yachts designed for large gatherings, like wedding receptions or birthdays and long tours around New York Harbor. Some are double-deckers or even have three full passenger levels, like Cornucopia Majesty , the party boat king of Queens. The experience takes it up a notch with dance floors, restaurants and private bars onboard. There are also smaller yachts with private staterooms for a more low-key dinner cruise with closest friends.
- Motor yachts -Ideal for smaller groups, motor yachts (like this one ) typically feature aft decks, bow sun pads, and inviting outdoor deck lounges. They're perfect for enjoying a cocktail at sunset or embarking on a brief yet memorable two-hour boat cruise with teammates.
- Groups of up to 15 can enjoy an intimate little marine party on NYC’s small boats . On top of that, we list restored, classy sailing ships and sailboats for a more unique excursion.
- You can also charter a private deck if you're after a cost-effective option. Consider chartering a single deck for a semi-private boat party. And for those specifically looking for a private party on a small yacht, we're here to assist in finding the perfect match for your event.
Safety tips when on a booze cruise
Here’s what you need to know to enjoy a fun boat party while being a responsible boater on New York waters:
- Don’t exceed capacity - Boats have a maximum number for a fundamental reason: the boat can hold only a certain weight. It may seem fun to bring more people than you are officially allowed to the boat, but don’t do it! Luckily, at Tagvenue, we took care of overpopulating any party boat. It takes a few clicks to enter how big is your guest list in our smart search filters!
- Rent a party boat with a captain - The golden rule of renting a yacht for a party is to have a designated driver. If it’s one of your shipmates, make sure they have a valid license and agree not to enjoy a drink during the party. Tagvenue lists party boat rentals with a captain who will drive a party boat for you, while you relax and drink whatever you wish.
- Don’t drink and swim like you shouldn’t drink and boat. We know that the vision of sipping craft cocktails in glorious weather on a luxury yacht tempts you to jump in the water, especially when the New York sun is heating up big time. Well, we do agree it’s tempting as well as irresponsible to do so. Alcohol messes with your ability to perceive danger, so if you swim after a few drinks, you may not be able to tell how safe the situation is.
- Drink responsibly: It's a no-brainer, but it's crucial – stay hydrated with plenty of water, avoid mixing drinks, eat well before drinking and know your limits. Underage drinking is not permitted on any party boat in New York. You can look for family-friendly dinner cruises.
- Stock up on food and water: If your party boat doesn’t provide catering, purchase an ample amount of snacks and water depending on how many people will attend your yacht party. Imagine being left on New York’s open waters without anything to drink or eat. Though Manhattan’s skyline is divine, it won’t fill an empty stomach.
- Safety equipment and measures: check if any of your guests are seasick or afraid of water. Can everyone swim? Are there enough life jackets? Ensure you and your guests listen to the safety briefing and know the location of life-saving equipment. Everyone must remain calm, stay seated, and listen to the crew's instructions should an emergency occur while onboard.

What a beautiful way to celebrate! The crew was fabulous and exceeded our expectations. I loved everything about it, and the food was good. Dancing, drinking, and partying with the city lights created a new appreciation for the city.

Renting Paul S.'s yacht was a fantastic experience! The vessel was pristine and well-equipped, ensuring a comfortable and luxurious outing. Paul's hospitality and knowledge of the area enhanced our adventure. Highly recommend for anyone seeking a memorable day on the water.
April, 2024
Ian was fantastic! Ian explained everything in detail and was very welcoming. I really enjoyed the experience and hospitality. I wanted to surprise my partner with the trip, and Ian was very accommodating in trying to keep it as last minute as possible. The boat was very well maintained and the ride was extremely smooth. Ian helped me create memories that'd last a lifetime and for that I'd highly recommend him.
Happiest experience ever; words cannot express my gratitude. I had the opportunity to visit all of New York, and the staff was incredibly friendly and eager to assist with anything. I've booked the nicest sailing trip ever and I'll do so again! I am quite delighted with this experience.
It's a bit windy but we all enjoyed the view and how friendly and professional Andrew is. He was very kind in helping my friend who has sea sickness. I had a wonderful birthday today on the boat even though it was cold. Also, they kindly waited for me to arrive due to unexpected traffic jam.

The 10 best boat rentals in NYC
Debating between a two-hour hire or a full-day trip along the Hudson? Choose a boat to start your adventures around NYC
Okay, so finding a boat rental may not be the first thing on your mind when planning your next trip to NYC. However, some would argue (us included) that one of the best ways to see the city at its best is on the water. From two-hour bareboat hires (yes, you’ll be the skipper) or a boat tour to full-day events fit for up to 600 people on a super yacht, there is a wide choice of boat rental options in New York City for you to choose from And we’re here to walk you through them and help you find the right one for you – and your socials, of course. Let’s get into it.
Before sailing into our list of the best boat rentals in NYC, we’ve got to keep you in the know-how for renting boats. It may sound super simple, but there are certainly a few things you should know before booking your dream yacht. Thanks to us (no shame), we’ve put in the research so you don't have to. Take a look and get ready for one of the best things to do in NYC .
RECOMMENDED: The best tours and walks in NYC
How much does it cost to rent a boat in NYC?
Renting a boat in NYC can be a surprisingly cheap thing to do, especially when split between your pals or family members. Most of the offerings are centered around quarter- and half-day rentals, while the mega-party yachts occasionally deliver a full-day experience. Prices for quarter-day boat rentals begin around $500, while larger boats and half-day rentals can get into the lower thousands. With that in mind, we’d suggest finalizing your guestlist and budget before putting down a deposit. It's smarter in the long run, promise.
How much does it cost to charter a private yacht in NYC?
Chartering a private yacht in NYC varies from other parts of the country where you’ll often hear of $100,000 charters as standard procedure. Thankfully, in New York City, things are a little different. Full-day charters can range from $5,000 to $60,000 – although the higher price points typically cater to large groups of 300 guests plus. it's best to decide beforehand what kind of party you’re throwing and how many guests you’d like to accommodate to ensure you get the best deal.
What do you need to rent a boat in NYC?
To rent a boat in NYC, you’ll need to be over 18 years old, hold a valid driver’s license, and have a credit card (in most cases). In some circumstances, you’ll also need a Boating Safety Certificate, but it’s best to check in with your boat rental company in advance to find out exactly what they need from you. Alternatively, you won’t need any sailing qualifications if you charter a private yacht as the captain will be in charge – just have the cash ready.
Does a crew come with a boat rental in NYC?
No, a crew doesn’t come with a boat rental in NYC. If a boat is offered bareboat, this means that you’ll be the skipper for the duration of the trip and there will be no captain onboard. However, if you charter a private yacht, more often than not, there will be a crew onboard to heighten your experience. You will need to verify this in your package offering.
What's the difference between NYC rentals and charters?
Most boat rentals in NYC are typically quarter-day or half-day trips centered around the Hudson River and offer up a unique perspective of New York City. There’s also a large variety of boats available, ranging from speedy motorboats to soaring sailboats. A few boat rentals in NYC offer the bareboat option, while the majority will have a captain available to sail you around the Big Apple's coastline so you sit back, relax on charter and enjoy that glass of bubbly in peace.

Best NYC boat rentals
1. The Azimut Express Cruiser
This 70ft luxury Italian yacht is one of the most incredible (and well-priced) super yachts in New York that we've ever seen. Catering to 12 guests with three bedrooms and three bathrooms a piece, this Azimut Express Cruiser is a brilliant yacht to charter for a group of friends or a large family looking for a memorable experience. Sail away, friends.
2. The Catalina Standard
There's nothing quite like hiring a private sailboat from Brooklyn Bridge Park and gliding across the Hudson River. Pack your own picnic beforehand and spend an afternoon soaking up the NYC sun while your captain takes you for a spin on this gorgeous Catalina. Yes, this one comes with a captain included.
3. The Sea Ray 270
This luxury woman-owned motorboat in New York City is designed with a group of friends in mind. With plenty of seating for up to 12 guests, an onboard bathroom, a fantastic sound system, and coolers for all your spritzers, this is the ideal boat for a day out with the pals. What’s that? Oh nothing, we just see a bachelorette party on the horizon.
4. The United States Coast Guard Yard Lightship
If you’re searching for iconic, you've just found it. This US Lightship comes from the '50s before she was decommissioned in 1985. A unique charter offering, she caters to over 100 guests and is one of the few full-day event options aboard a ship in NYC. And if not for anything else, she's pretty Instagrammable.
5. The Atlantis Custom Super Yacht
Some might just say that Atlantis is the go-to New York party yacht. With a capacity for 300 guests and 147ft of event space, this private charter yacht will be the party that's talked about for decades afterward. Whether it's corporate dinners, birthday parties, or a full-blown wedding, Atlantis and her crew will cater to yours – and your event's – every need.
6. The Cape Craft
This one-of-a-kind boat rental in NYC offers guests a private fishing charter experience. Bask in the ambiance of Long Island's coastline while Captain Arthur shows you how to perfect your tackle – pun not intended. Simply cast your line and see what comes of it. Ay-ay, captain.
7. The Luxury Cruise
Hop aboard this 200ft European-style party boat originally from the naughty ‘90s. Catering for 300, this cruise provides guests with epic views of the Manhattan coastline (and skyline) through its revolutionary glass windows. Hear that? Yep, it’s popping-bottle time. Grab your bestie and get dancing.
8. The Beneteau Sloop
Cruise through New York City's harbor on the stunning Beneteau Sloop sailboat, courtesy of the captain. There’s a large table onboard ideal for food and drinks served by the professional and friendly crew. Ideal, right? Just don't forget to wave to the Statue of Liberty as the USA flag billows in the wind beside her.
9. The Godfrey Sweetwater
This comfy pontoon is ideal fun for all the family. It's easy to drive (that's one for you, cap) and has a built-in GPS and Bluetooth radio. The finishes are super modern and with adjustable roofing, you’ll have prime viewing of New York City all around. Please note that you must be at least 25 years of age to hire this boat.
10. The Party Cruise
Perhaps the largest NYC party yacht rental we’ve seen, this party cruise is a step back into the early 2000s – but with an interactive DJ from 2023, thank goodness. Or not? Either way, marvel at the breathtaking views of New York while you sip on something cold included in the food and drinks package. Don’t you just love a win-win? We certainly do.
