My cousin invited us to a private chartered boat for his wife's birthday. We were a small group of six and didn't know what to expect. It turned out to be one of the most lovely summer evenings! Captain Jared and his wonderfully helpful first mate took us on a beautiful trip in Jamaica Bay.
We brought food and drinks, which were stored within the vessel, while we sat in the open air. We were able to eat without issue - we brought cheese platters, chips, etc. The boat does have a restroom but no one used it. It was a two hour trip and bay was perfect.
The waters were smooth and weather was perfect, I can't think of a better summer adventure. I recommend this highly and I would do it again. read more
