1.5 - 2.5 hours
Up to 6 people
Captain & crew, Docking fees
Ride a private yacht from Manhattan to Flushing Bay on a scenic US Open route. Choose a 1.5–2.5 hour charter for up to 6 guests with a U.S. Coast Guard licensed captain and crew.
Alcohol, catering, and decoration services cost extra. Gratuity for captain and crew is not included (18–22% suggested).
This booking is for the whole experience, which fits up to 6 guests.
Bring valid photo identification (passport or U.S. driver’s license) for the credit card holder. If you don’t provide matching photo ID, you won’t be able to board.
Arrive on time. Boarding starts 5 minutes before departure, and your yachting time can’t be extended. If you arrive late, your charter may be shortened or cancelled, and late arrivals and no-shows are not rescheduled or refunded.
If there’s a chance of rain, the captain monitors radar and decides about rescheduling about 2 hours prior to departure if rain can’t be avoided.

Seeing New York City from the water is already special, but what travelers keep coming back to is how much the crew elevates the whole thing. Captain Marvin and his team, including crew members like Vanessa, Gino, and Jack, consistently earn praise for being warm, knowledgeable, and genuinely attentive. Guests with hundreds of sightseeing questions get real answers, and families with kids get little moments like letting them sit up near the captain. The experience seems to work beautifully for all kinds of occasions. Birthday celebrations, engagements, group trips, and family holidays all get the same thoughtful treatment. The sunset cruise past the Statue of Liberty comes up repeatedly as a standout, and the boat itself is noted for being clean and comfortable, with a bathroom on board. Food and champagne also get positive mentions, so it does feel like a full experience rather than just a boat ride. Across a wide range of travelers, including international visitors, milestone celebrators, and first-time NYC tourists, the word that keeps surfacing is "highlight." That kind of consistency is hard to fake, and it makes this a strong option for anyone looking to do something genuinely memorable on the water.
Dream Boat NY absolutely made our engagement unforgettable. I proposed to my fiancée on their boat right by the Statue of Liberty, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Martin and Jack were incredible from start to finish — welcoming, attentive, and genuinely excited to make the moment special for us. The whole experience felt personal and effortless, and I’d highly recommend booking the drinks and food package. It took all the pressure off and made the afternoon feel even more celebratory. A truly unforgettable way to mark such a big moment. Thank you, Christie, Martin & Jack
