Lowest Price GuaranteeThe original Clipper City was built as a lumber-hauling cargo schooner just before the start of the Civil War. It was then rebuilt from the original plans, which were on loan from the Smithsonian Institution, and more recently refurbished to the modern-day sailing vessel on this tour. The new and improved Clipper City is 158 feet (47 m) long and 120 feet (36 m) high and can accommodate 130 passengers, more than any other sailboat of its kind in the United States.
On this 1.5-hour afternoon sail, enjoy beautiful views of New York City landmarks from one of two decks.

Viator Traveler's Reviews
This was a wonderful way to see our magnificent Lady Liberty. We saw her at dusk. The Tall ship made us feel like the early seekers of a brighter future in America. The crew was wonderful and actually helped a crew of us us experience set sail with our bare hands and then we coached us to take the sails down. The drinks were good.... the day was delightful, sunny, and we had a great breeze. It was Glorious! We are so glad we took this adventure.
We did not sail on the Tall Ship. The directions lead us to the small Schooner, which was great experience. The crew was fantastic, friendly, informative, and on their game. The Captain was a joy to talk with. That's the Boat and Crew. Trying to find the Tall ship was a disaster. I had to call to find directions, which lead us to the smaller Schooner. There needs to be much better directions to the whereabouts of each of the ships.
