We got on the boat at 4 and we were sea sick for a half hour till 4:30 until it left the dock. The boat went up a few blocks toward the George Washington bridge and came back by 5.

The experience was nice. Quiet and calm. Food was good for the price. Great for a brunch/lunch or late evening meal. I think the boat could stay out a little bit longer for us to enjoy the view more. I thought it came back to quickly. The good thing is that you can stay on the boat all day no rush to come off as soon as you dock. I would go back again. 

Business response:

Thank you so much for your kind words, Sharon. We really appreciate you taking the time out to share your experience with us. We hope to see you onboard NRLC again! Cheers, Jessica W.

The whole cruise last 25/30 min ! U barely have time to eat, u feel like rushing the whole time! I wouldn’t do again! Spend 130 dollars, money enough to have a calm lunch in somewhere!

Sail times may be shortened by the Captain due to changing weather conditions but guests are welcome to stay onboard for as long as they like. Boarding passes are valid for all day sailing.
