Happy Friday Friends!
Have you ever wanted to sail around Manhattan while drinking champagne and dining on crudo and caviar? I mean, yes? Alas, your dreams are about to come true. Classic Harbor Line, the gorgeous historic schooner company, has partnered with the Italian coastal restaurant Marea to present Marea at Sea, a leisure sail around downtown Manhattan featuring a menu of favorites from the restaurant’s Italian-inspired coastal cuisine.
The two hour sunset sail runs every Monday night starting August 14th through September 25th from Chelsea Pier 62, with a menu of spectacular views of the New York City skyline, served with Marea’s renowned crudo, caviar, and more.

While sailing past the One World Trade Center, Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty, you’ll be served two savory dishes followed by a dessert, and the option of a three-glass wine pairing curated by Marea’s sommelier team.
