On Long Island Sound, there's something for everyone! These are just a few of of our sample itineraries. Let us know what you're interested in and we'll create a float plan just for you!
Day Trip or Sunset Cruise around the Sound
Best Time: July - August
Board the yacht in Cos Cob and set out on your own adventure! Take a swim off Great Captain's Island, cruise up the Byram River, head to Eaton's Neck for bird watching, cruise by Billy Joel's house on Oyster Bay, we will create an itinerary so you can do whatever your heart desires.
We'll make sure you see the best spots and if you're aboard for Sunset, you can take in the best views Long Island Sound has to offer.
Fireworks at Rye Playland
Best Time: July - August
Anchor just off Rye Playland in New Rochelle, NY and enjoy a spectacular fireworks show while sipping the beverage of your choice. It's a beautiful show and only takes place during the months of July and August so make sure to take advantage of this one!
With enough notice, we can schedule the trip to depart and return to NY Harbor or Greenwich Harbor. You can also do a one-way, and board in NYC or Jersey City after work, stop for the fireworks show and then disembark in Greenwich. What a way to commute!
Paddleboarding at Eaton's Neck
Best Times: May - September
Enjoy the wildlife at the bird sanctuary located at Eaton's Neck in Long Island. Splash a paddleboard and start exploring! See the horseshoe crabs that live in the marshes and the birds that come to graze on the clams and mussels. Take a swim in the tranquil, very protected waters of this hidden gem of a location.
Dock and Dine
Best Times: May - September
Whether you want to make a grand entrance at Prime in Huntington Harbor, belly up to the raw bar at SONO Seaport Seafood or grab a lobster roll in City Island, arriving by boat is always more fun than having to fight traffic on I-95!
Other Long Island dock and dine options include L'Escale at the Delamar Hotel in Greenwich, Louie's in Port Washington, the Tiki Bar in Rye, and many, many more!
In NY Harbor, try the Chart House, Batello or, for casual fare, Surf City!
US and British Virgin Islands

Ready for something a little more tropical? We have the PERFECT plan for you!
From sailing, snorkeling and SCUBA to finding buried pirate treasure, aboard our 44' sailing catamaran, Catatonic, you'll create lifelong memories to share with your friends and family.
