Excellent hosts! Very accommodating and welcoming. Great experience all around , I was able to celebrate my 30th birthday in style ! Bartender and crew were awesome ! And the fire place makes this a really great deal. The best part was the hospitality 🙏🏾

Captain Paul and his staff were wonderful, and the trip was magic! Such a great boat for a special occasion, couldn’t have had a better experience!

Amal was fantastic to work with and the experience was better than we could have expected. Capt Arjen and Tiffany were incredible hosts, Amal was super communicative, and the boat was beyond pristine. Would absolutely book this trip again!

We celebrated my niece’s sweet 16 with friends and family and had an awesome time!!! Paul and the crew were fantastic… Music system on board is awesome! We couldn’t have asked for a better set up… Thanks!!!

The Best Time of Year for New York Boat Rental

When it comes to planning a boat rental in New York, the best time of year for you depends on what type of experience and activities you want. If your goal is relaxation and tranquility then spring or autumn may be ideal; however if adventure is more your thing then summer could provide an unforgettable escape from reality.

Let’s take a look at each season individually so that we can determine which one suits you best:

Spring (March - May)

Springtime temperatures begin rising as early as March making this the perfect time to get out on the water with no fear of running into cold weather! This also means that there are fewer crowds compared to other times during peak seasons like Summer & Fall. With milder winds blowing throughout most days, renting a boat charter offers some great opportunities for fishing spots along Long Island where striped bass show up around April/May every year due do their migration pattern being triggered by warming waters.

Alongside these exciting prospects, come even better views when sailing through The Lower East River Estuary where bird watching enthusiasts will find themselves surrounded by various species such as egrets, swans and herons just waiting patiently until sunrise hits them with its golden light rays!

Summer (June - August)

Summer is the peak season for boat rentals in New York, since it offers ideal weather conditions with plenty of sunshine and warmer temperatures to sail around. This time of year provides a great opportunity to explore all that Long Island has to offer as well as access rivers, islands and other attractions like The Statue Of Liberty or Ellis Islands which are only accessible via watercrafts!

Additionally, due its typically calmer waters & lack of storms during summer months; this makes sailing much easier than if you were braving Mother Nature’s wrath any other period throughout the calendar.

Fall (September - November)

Fall marks an interesting change from Summer where temperature begin dropping, but still remain mild enough so that renting out boats for your special trip can be done without too many worries about extreme weather changes happening suddenly on-the-spot. With fewer crowds, yet again compared to previous seasons & cooler winds blowing through most days, means there will be more opportunities available when seeking certain fishing spots along both sides of Hudson River Estuary such as striped bass, bluefish etc.

On top of these exciting prospects comes some beautiful foliage views, while cruising down East River making sure your vacation pictures stand out among everyone else’s posts online!

Winter (December - February)

Winter brings cold temperatures and snowfall across parts of upstate New York, which can make renting out boats pretty difficult due to icy conditions.

Each season offers different experiences for boat rental enthusiasts in New York; however summer remains by far most popular choice among travelers with its ideal weather, coupled alongside some incredible sights of waterways like Hudson River Estuary or Lower East Side, making sure every minute spent aboard your vessel is an unforgettable one, no matter what type activity you seek after, all year round!

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

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.

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.

Oh nothing, we just see a bachelorette party on the horizon.

4.  The United States Coast Guard Yard Lightship

If you’re searching for iconic, you've just found it.

And if not for anything else, she's pretty Instagrammable.

8.  The Beneteau Sloop

Cruise through New York City's harbor on the stunning Beneteau Sloop sailboat, courtesy of the captain.

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.

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.
