Frequently Asked Questions What happens if it rains? I never force my customers to sail in the rain but if you still do want to sail, I have a cabin and a bimini to take cover under so you’ll remain dry. If you decide not to sail (the chance of rain must be greater than 40% that lasts for more than 30 minutes), we can try to reschedule and if we can’t find a date that works, I will give a full refund. I also don’t force people to sail when the temperature is below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. I will call the sail off if there is a strong threat of lightning or winds are in excessive (as determined by me). We must wait until the day of the charter (at least two hours prior to the start of the charter) to make the final decision on weather so we can interpret radar projections.  Sometimes the chance of rain might be greater than 40% but radar clearly shows rain passing miles north or miles south from the area we sail, allowing us to charter in dry conditions.  The closer to the start of the charter that we can wait, the more accurate the forecast will be. What is the typical route? Each sail is customizable but a typical 4 hour sail includes sailing down the Hudson River from Chelsea Piers (passing Lower Manhattan) to get as close to the Statue of Liberty as possible.  From there, we sail around Governors Island and underneath the Brooklyn and Manhattan Bridges on the East River before returning. Is there a bathroom aboard? Yes. What does the charter come with? Bottled waters, sodas, ice, cups, plates, cutlery, napkins, etc. You are more than welcomed to bring food aboard.  Can I bring alcohol? Yes, but I don’t provide alcohol.  I have the appropriate bottle openers and nice plastic wine glasses and plastic champagne flutes on board. Will I get seasick? My sailboat has a full keel which makes her more stable than most boats. However, all boats rock. I suggest that you take a motion sickness pill before boarding the boat if you are afraid of getting seasick as the pill takes time to work. Do you allow children aboard? Of course! I’ve been sailing since in my mother’s womb so it would be hypocritical of me to not allow children aboard the Genesis! Children under 12 years of age are required to wear a life jacket, which I provide. Do you have a refrigerator? Yes, but it’s not a full sized refrigerator like you would find in a home. It’s large enough to hold drinks for a charter. Do you have a stereo? - Yes and I have bluetooth speakers as well.  I have an auxiliary cord that you can use to plug into the stereo to play music from your phone. You can also bring your charging cord to plug into the stereo’s USB port to keep your phone charged. Do you have Wi-Fi? No but phones do get reception out on the water.
