My family loves Atlantic Yachting. Our girls (9 and 11) took a week of sailing camp this past summer and enjoyed it so much that we signed up for a second week at the last minute. Then, when we took out some catamarans on our own for some family sailing later in the summer, the girls' comfort level with sailing was evident. Finally, my wife and I have done two three-hour sails with Logan at Atlantic Yachting this month (why should the kids have all the fun?). A couple of weeks ago, the winds were really light; today, it was blowing. It's a real credit to Logan that we had a great time on both of the sails. We so enjoyed both Logan's teaching (which he made appropriate for our intermediate sailing skills) and his company.

Highly recommend - for New York natives and visitors. We had an incredible experience celebrating a friend's birthday. The crew was super knowledgeable and welcoming. Very professional yet relate-able and fun. They took care of everything - even plating our food and pouring our drinks, allowing us to take in the views and enjoy our company. Would definitely book again with Atlantic Yachting.

To start off, Jonathan and Conor at Atlantic Yachting are just great human beings. My wife and I enjoyed our Basic Keelboat class under their tutelage. It has been close to 25 years since I sailed and my wife never even thought of sailing until I brought it up, however after the 2 day class (with a ton of on water, actual sailing time) we came away with a greater understanding and love for the sport (and also a sailing certification).
Jonathan and Conor made us feel safe and gave us the confidence to push through and learn what for all practical purposes was something new to us. Martha (who initially wasn't too thrilled about sailing) now can't wait to get back out on the river to sail again.
Thanks Atlantic and specifically Jonathan and Conor for a fun and rewarding weekend!

If you're looking for a fun way to spend the day with friends, definitely check out Atlantic Yachting! We sailed with Jonathen and Mariette on a Sunday afternoon/early evening and saw the best views of Manhattan from the Hudson River.
The crew was incredible, chatting with us about some of the different sites as we passed and serving us the food and drinks we brought with us (this was unexpected and such a nice perk!) so that we were able to sit and enjoy the views and company.
Our charter fit 6 people comfortably. I would absolutely recommend for a locals and visitors alike looking to celebrate or just see the city from a new perspective. Can't wait to go again!

A truly special experience. Whether you are visiting the city or have lived here your whole life, I highly recommend Atlantic Yachting.
The crew was exceptional. The team of two for our particular cruise made us feel relaxed and welcome on their beautiful sail boat. They were also knowledgeable about their boat and the New York coast line.
I was with a small group of six and this particular boat was perfectly sized for our group. The seating arrangement allowed us to chat comfortably, while also enjoying the stunning views of New York City. Both sides of the boat were able to enjoy the views and we left we some fantastic pictures of our group.
We went on a 1.5 hour cruise; however, it would be well worth a longer trip since the trip provides a unique perspective of many of the iconic NYC sights (A coast to coast view of the center of New York along 42nd St, One World Trade, the Statue of Liberty, etc).
Looking forward to finding another occasion to set sail with Atlantic Yachting!
