We look forward to seeing you!

I'll send more details the day before the scheduled time.

There is a drink menu available for purchase: Champagne, Rosé, White Wine, Beer, and Hard Seltzer.

We leave from the marina in Brooklyn Bridge Park, Pier 5.

Tipping the captain 10-20% is customary but not mandatory.

Please be aware that there is a small chance I will ask to reschedule due to group size or weather. If cancelled there is a full refund.
