Quick Details
Join Manhattan by Sail on July 3rd at 12:30 PM for a rare opportunity to sail directly alongside the Parade of Tall Ships as they arrive in New York Harbor for the Sail250 celebration.
Aboard Clipper City, one of the largest and most iconic tall ships in the country, you’ll experience this historic maritime procession the way it was meant to be seen – from the water, under sail, with the skyline as your backdrop. As international tall ships, naval vessels, and classic sailboats pass through the harbor, our experienced crew will guide you through the spectacle with seamless sailing and thoughtful storytelling.
This is not a cruise – it’s a true sailing experience, connecting New York’s working harbor, maritime heritage, and modern city energy in one unforgettable afternoon.
