Luxury yacht rentals in NYC for 2hr, 4hr, or full-day private cruises.
Enjoy skyline views, smooth rides, and custom events.
Themed Cruises Available
Each route we offer is designed to match a mood or occasion.
Bachelorette Boat Party
The last big night out, on the water instead of in a queue. Your playlist, your drinks, your crew.
Proposal Cruise
You get one shot at the story you’ll both tell forever. Sunset, the skyline, and nobody aboard but the two of you.
Corporate Charter
Client entertaining or a team day out, on a boat that seats everyone at once — ten minutes from the skyline.
NYC Skyline Cruise
The classic route for seeing Lower Manhattan, the Freedom Tower, and those bridge arches you’ve seen a thousand times—this time from the water.
Sunset Cruise
Watch the city change colors as the sun drops. Perfect for proposals or any night that needs a little extra magic. Beautiful views you won’t forget.
Coney Island Fireworks
Bring your crew, some drinks, and enjoy the fireworks show from the best seat on the water. A perfect way to make the night unforgettable.
Night Cruise
As the city lights come alive, the pace shifts. It’s a time to relax, take in the view, and enjoy New York from a quieter, more personal perspective.
4th of July Fireworks
The Macy’s fireworks from your own boat instead of a packed waterfront. Four hours, all-inclusive, the whole yacht for your group.
Party Boat Rental
Not a 100-person booze cruise. One private yacht, your people only, your music, and nobody else on deck.
Birthday Yacht Party
Bring the cake, we handle the harbour. The skyline sits behind every photo, and the boat is yours alone.
NYC Boat Charter
- Meridian Sedan 441.
- Maximum Capacity 12 people
Every private yacht rental with us is designed around your pace, your plans, and your people. You can choose from:
- 2-Hour Charter: Great for quick sightseeing, proposals, or a relaxing ride at sunset. You’ll cruise past the skyline, snap a few incredible photos, and be back before you know it.
- 4-Hour Charter: A solid choice for mid-size celebrations, birthdays, or bachelorette parties. There’s time to see more of the harbour, drop anchor, and settle in.
- Full-Day Charter: Want to turn the boat into your own private venue for the day? A full-day luxury yacht rental gives you time to cruise farther, swim, eat, and take it slow.

Frequently Asked Questions
Planning your yacht cruise? Helpful info before you book.
How far in advance should I book?
We recommend booking at least 1–2 weeks in advance, especially for weekend or holiday dates. Popular time slots can fill quickly during summer and peak season.
Is there a minimum age requirement to charter the yacht?
Yes. The primary renter (charterer) must be at least 21 years old and present at the time of boarding to sign the charter agreement.
Can I bring my own food and drinks?
Absolutely. Light snacks, sandwiches, and cold platters are welcome. We provide basic serving items like cups and plates. Just avoid full catered meals that need onboard preparation.
Do I need boating experience or a license to rent?
No license is required. A licensed captain and crew will operate the boat for you, and their services are paid directly at the dock.
What happens if the weather is bad?
In the case of unsafe weather, we’ll work with you to reschedule. Safety always comes first, and your captain will make the final call on whether the trip can go ahead.
How do we handle payment for the crew and fuel?
The base cruise fee is paid at the time of booking. Additional required fees for the captain, deckhand, and fuel are paid directly at the dock prior to departure.
What if I get seasick easily?
Our yacht is equipped with a Seakeeper stabilisation system that minimises rocking. Most guests find the ride smooth and comfortable, even if they’re usually sensitive to motion.
