Item Description

With the New York City skyline and the Statue of Liberty as backdrops, prepare yourself for an unforgettable evening with 29 of your closest friends with a two-hour private charter onboard the Shearwater, an 82-foot vintage schooner. Greet your guests and sail from Shearwater’s home berth at the North Cove at the World Financial Center. Toast this special vintage sailing experience with beer or wine from the included open bar. Completed in 1929 - only a month before the stock market crash, the Shearwater was built at the pinnacle of the Gatsby-Era as the personal yacht of Charles E. Dunlap, a prominent New York City industrialist. She was recently added to the National Registry of Historic Names and Places.
