More about Sailo Yacht Rentals in New York City

New York City is known as more than just “the city that never sleeps”, it is home to the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, Times Square, Broadway and the New York Yankees. If you're looking to charter a yacht in the northeastern U.S., NY is the ultimate sailing destination . In this breathtaking location, the city meets the sea and provides gorgeous views and nautical adventures for vacationers of every interest. NY boat rentals offer the opportunity to immerse yourself in gorgeous scenery of the Manhattan skyline and the natural beauty of the Atlantic Ocean. You've never truly experienced NYC until you've rented a boat and set sail from Manhattan.

Explore New York boat rentals

Summer in the city never felt so good. Manhattan, the main NY boat rental area, offers several types of boats fit for every occasion and interest. Whether you're looking for the perfect NY boat rental for your fishing adventure or you want a sunset dinner cruise with views of the Manhattan skyline, Sailo's got you covered.

How to rent a yacht in New York?

There are three main types of NY yacht rentals to choose from: sailboats , motor boats , and party boats . These are daily yacht rentals, meaning they can be rented for up to a certain number of hours each day, depending on the rental. You can choose the vessel for your trip based on your party size and activity preference.

What to see in New York when renting a boat?

For the most variety in the heart of New York City, Manhattan is the place to be. Here, the city and the sea come alive in perfect harmony, with luxurious dinner cruises and adventurous excursions to satisfy the boat-lover in all of us. This city has a boat rental for every occasion and convenient access to the surrounding areas of the northeast. If you're here for a weekend or even just a day, we recommend Manhattan for its central location to all things fun in the Big Apple. Take a morning sail in the fresh Atlantic air, rent a party boat for your next spring break vacay, or dine aboard a sunset dinner cruise through this beautiful harbor.

Jersey City

Jersey City also offers some amazing yacht rentals in NYC. The Jersey City marina is slightly smaller, but don't let that stop you from checking out this beautiful hidden gem right across the water from Manhattan. If you're looking for a relaxing romantic sail or a family-friendly sailing for the weekend, this is the place to be. While you're here, take advantage of the close proximity to some of New York City's iconic sites, like the Statue of Liberty and the Hudson River. These attractions make NY boat rentals completely worth it.

Other nearby locations to explore

If you're in the New York City area and want to explore some other scenic destinations by sailing, we recommend the Hamptons and Oyster Bay . Each of these locations is perfect for couples, families, or groups of friends. For a taste of the traditional, head to the Hamptons for picturesque northeastern views and beautiful seaside architecture. Go fishing in Montauk or join in the fun with some epic watersports rentals for any skill level. If you're looking for even more history and delicious cuisine, head over to Oyster Bay. This sailing paradise is located just a stone's throw away from the historic Vanderbilt Estate (and some incomparable oceanfront dining). No matter what suits your fancy, choose your own boating adventure on your northeastern vacation.

When is the best season to rent a yacht in New York?

Because New York is located in the northeast U.S., you should keep in mind local weather conditions when planning your boating excursion. Generally, the sailing season in New York runs from the end of April through October, as this is the time of year when the weather is the most permissible. But for the best experience, we recommend anytime from May through August. This is the warmest time of year and will offer you long, sunny days on the water with gorgeous evening sunsets. Of course, you should check the average weather conditions during the time you plan to visit and pack accordingly. Spring and fall temperatures tend to range in the high 50°s with some rainfall, which summer temperatures are generally in the 80°s with some humidity. Because the temperature can differ within the sailing season, be sure to pay attention to the weather forecast before embarking on your boating vacation and pack the appropriate clothing and gear before you set sail.

Recent reviews in new york, eric february, 2024, ny/nj's #1 party yacht. luxury 61' yacht see nyc like never before.

Highly recommend! Italo and Mariann are amazing people and hosts. I was originally planning to do an unlimited mimosa and Buffett boat that was offered by another company, but after reading more reviews and realizing the price was essentially the same, I swapped to this boat ride idea instead. And let me just say - it is worth every penny! Nothing beats having your own private boat and Italo and Mariann are very accommodating. I took my friends on this for my birthday and everyone had a blasted. If you’re looking for an experience in NYC, this is for you.

Andy January, 2024

I celebrated the birthday party for my wife with a group of her close friends and Italo and Mariann. It became a huge success and a huge surprise to her. This yacht brought us the most joyful birthday experience ever. Even if it was a cold winter night, we still love staying outside to enjoy the skyline of nyc. We appreciate Italo and Mariann a lot for the detailed and warm hospitality. They are so friendly and responsive. We had a super customized charter. Everything was way beyond my expectations.

Cassio February, 2024

Ian was great. I planned a marry proposal and his help to get this done was crucial. I do recommend him.

Netanel January, 2024

Glenn was super responsive and helpful throughout the entire process, and accommodating to my special requests. The experience was fantastic!

Jenn August, 2023

Our trip with Glenn was amazing and everything we hoped for to celebrate my best friend's bachelorette party! Leading up to our trip, Glenn was super responsive, helpful, and friendly. We had some trouble finding the dock and he was patient, dropped us his location, and ensured we found where we needed to go. When we arrived, Glenn was ready to greet us and the boat was spotless. We got out on the water quickly and throughout our trip Glenn and his helper Sam were nothing but gracious. I would highly recommend this boat/charter for your next Hamptons outing!

Dazyiah June, 2023

The captain and staff were very kind and professional. As someone who’s always dreamt of having a yacht party for my birthday, with this being my first experience ever I was very pleased. Nothing came as a shock or odd. My friends and I were welcomed with open anrms and had one of the best days ever, truly rare. Thank you!

Captain’s Swagger: Three Lounges!

For the urban adventurer, the high seas meet high-end chic on a private sailing charter NYC. Enjoy not one, not two, but three lounges — perfect for sightseeing and entertaining. The spacious deck lounge boasts table seating for six under a canopy with full shade. Slip into the cabin lounge, a spacious haven wrapped in varnished wood and crisp white upholstery with additional table seating for six. For those craving the warmth of the sun, head to the cushioned sun pad at the bow of the boat to bask in the sun and the views.

Worried about missing the comforts of land? Fear not! Enjoy the state-of-the-art sound system with Bluetooth connection for your personal playlist.

Exclusive luxury has found a new favorite in this NYC sailing charter.

VIP Service: Luxury Yacht Charter

Experience celebrity service the moment you arrive, with captain and crew welcoming you at the dock. Start your voyage with a glass of champagne from the open bar. Select an all-inclusive brunch or lunch, or generous appetizers served on solid wood platters. For the ultimate floating celebration, choose a decoration package to transform the vessel for special occasions. With concierge service on land and onboard, entertaining and sightseeing on a sailboat rental NYC is a seamless experience. Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, embarking on a romantic rendezvous, proposing to your beloved, or tying the knot, this luxury yacht charter NYC is your moment to shine.

Boat Charter NYC: Your Passport to the Best Views

Sailing always comes with the best sights and experience — Statue of Liberty, Ellis Island, Brooklyn Bridge, Financial District, World Trade Tower, Governors Island, and stunning views of the city skyline. Beyond sightseeing, sailing is an immersive experience. Wtih a US Coast Guard licensed captain at the helm, the sails will unfurl and you’ll feel the power of the wind carrying you across the water. Sail NYC and lose yourself in the ever-expanding sky.

This is not your average New York yacht rental; it’s an invitation to embrace the untamed beauty of the sea. Keep an eye out for natural wonders — seals are back, fish are jumping, even fin whales have been spotted in the NY Harbor. Catch nature’s light show during the evening cruise NYC, or go for the glamour of a night boat tour NYC. Sailing is not just a boat ride; it’s a destination.

Explore. Dream. Discover.

#1 Sailboat Charter In NYC ★★★★★

Go Sailing NYC

Perfect experience for a family, small group of local friends, or tourists. Stunning city skyscapes and incredible sunset views! Gino and Caleb were an amazing staff - friendly, knowledgeable and so accommodating. The night had an unexpectedly perfect ending with a fireworks show over the Hudson, too. Could not recommend more!

We LOVED our sail today! Captain Caleb and Gino were both knowledgeable and accommodating. My family and I went to celebrate my birthday. We highly recommend the sail to anyone looking to see NYC and the sites from a different vantage while enjoying the water and an awesome boat ride. We can’t wait to do it again!!!!

Wonderful brunch cruise along the Hudson River. We were made very welcome, the captain and crew really looked after us, very relaxed. This is a must on your trip to NYC. I will definitely do this again on this gorgeous boat! Thank you for such a lovely time.

We loved our experience with them! Boarding was super easy and the captain was experienced and witty. They set us up with drinks and music right at the beginning and really let us do our own thing the entire trip checking in to see what we needed often. None of us had any experience on a boat but anything we needed to know they explained early on (not a whole lot other than safely moving around the boat because they handled everything). All 6 of us would do it again, loved it! Phenomenal way to view the city skyline and Statue of Liberty!

We had such a wonderful time sailing yesterday. The boat was just the right size, the captain and crew provided excellent service. We hope to make this a monthly experience with you all. It was one of the most peaceful experiences we had in nyc. It was an excellent way to experience the city.

Go Sailing NYC

We decided to treat ourselves for a birthday/Anniversary private sail around the NY harbor. This sunset sail was absolutely beautiful and totally exceeded our expectations. Thank you Caleb and Gino for a wonderful evening.

Wow !! what a beautiful ride. The captain and crew were so accommodating, kind, and helpful. They really went out of their way to make it the best evening it could be. Thank you! Highly recommend, and hope to be back!

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Captain Martin this year and highly recommend sailing and/or boating with this company! All of the staff and crew were wonderful and I plan on returning as a passenger for years to come. Sailing in the harbor is a must for all NYC residents and visitors!

The 10 best boat rentals in NYC

Debating between a two-hour hire or a full-day trip along the Hudson? Choose a boat to start your adventures around NYC

Alex Floyd-Douglass

Okay, so finding a boat rental may not be the first thing on your mind when planning your next trip to NYC. However, some would argue (us included) that one of the best ways to see the city at its best is on the water. From two-hour bareboat hires (yes, you’ll be the skipper) or a boat tour to full-day events fit for up to 600 people on a super yacht, there is a wide choice of boat rental options in New York City for you to choose from And we’re here to walk you through them and help you find the right one for you – and your socials, of course. Let’s get into it. 

Before sailing into our list of the best boat rentals in NYC, we’ve got to keep you in the know-how for renting boats. It may sound super simple, but there are certainly a few things you should know before booking your dream yacht. Thanks to us (no shame), we’ve put in the research so you don't have to. Take a look and get ready for one of the best things to do in NYC .

RECOMMENDED:   The best tours and walks in NYC

How much does it cost to rent a boat in NYC?

Renting a boat in NYC can be a surprisingly cheap thing to do, especially when split between your pals or family members. Most of the offerings are centered around quarter- and half-day rentals, while the mega-party yachts occasionally deliver a full-day experience. Prices for quarter-day boat rentals begin around $500, while larger boats and half-day rentals can get into the lower thousands. With that in mind, we’d suggest finalizing your guestlist and budget before putting down a deposit. It's smarter in the long run, promise.

How much does it cost to charter a private yacht in NYC?

Chartering a private yacht in NYC varies from other parts of the country where you’ll often hear of $100,000 charters as standard procedure. Thankfully, in New York City, things are a little different. Full-day charters can range from $5,000 to $60,000 – although the higher price points typically cater to large groups of 300 guests plus. it's best to decide beforehand what kind of party you’re throwing and how many guests you’d like to accommodate to ensure you get the best deal.

What do you need to rent a boat in NYC?

To rent a boat in NYC, you’ll need to be over 18 years old, hold a valid driver’s license, and have a credit card (in most cases). In some circumstances, you’ll also need a Boating Safety Certificate, but it’s best to check in with your boat rental company in advance to find out exactly what they need from you. Alternatively, you won’t need any sailing qualifications if you charter a private yacht as the captain will be in charge – just have the cash ready.

Does a crew come with a boat rental in NYC?

No, a crew doesn’t come with a boat rental in NYC. If a boat is offered bareboat, this means that you’ll be the skipper for the duration of the trip and there will be no captain onboard. However, if you charter a private yacht, more often than not, there will be a crew onboard to heighten your experience. You will need to verify this in your package offering.

What's the difference between NYC rentals and charters?

Most boat rentals in NYC are typically quarter-day or half-day trips centered around the Hudson River and offer up a unique perspective of New York City. There’s also a large variety of boats available, ranging from speedy motorboats to soaring sailboats. A few boat rentals in NYC offer the bareboat option, while the majority will have a captain available to sail you around the Big Apple's coastline so you sit back, relax on charter and enjoy that glass of bubbly in peace.

This one-of-a-kind boat rental in NYC offers guests a private fishing charter experience. Bask in the ambiance of Long Island's coastline while Captain Arthur shows you how to perfect your tackle – pun not intended. Simply cast your line and see what comes of it. Ay-ay, captain.

The Luxury Cruise

7.  The Luxury Cruise

Hop aboard this 200ft European-style party boat originally from the naughty ‘90s. Catering for 300, this cruise provides guests with epic views of the Manhattan coastline (and skyline) through its revolutionary glass windows. Hear that? Yep, it’s popping-bottle time. Grab your bestie and get dancing.

The Beneteau Sloop

8.  The Beneteau Sloop

Cruise through New York City's harbor on the stunning Beneteau Sloop sailboat, courtesy of the captain. There’s a large table onboard ideal for food and drinks served by the professional and friendly crew. Ideal, right? Just don't forget to wave to the Statue of Liberty as the USA flag billows in the wind beside her. 

The Godfrey Sweetwater

9.  The Godfrey Sweetwater

This comfy pontoon is ideal fun for all the family. It's easy to drive (that's one for you, cap) and has a built-in GPS and Bluetooth radio. The finishes are super modern and with adjustable roofing, you’ll have prime viewing of New York City all around. Please note that you must be at least 25 years of age to hire this boat.

The Party Cruise

10.  The Party Cruise

Perhaps the largest NYC party yacht rental we’ve seen, this party cruise is a step back into the early 2000s – but with an interactive DJ from 2023, thank goodness. Or not? Either way, marvel at the breathtaking views of New York while you sip on something cold included in the food and drinks package. Don’t you just love a win-win? We certainly do.
