- A SLICE OF HEAVEN ON EARTH – HAPPY NEW YEAR
WE BOARDED THE BEAUTIFUL SCHOONER AND WERE GREETED BY THE FRIENDLY CREW. FREE BEER AND WINE WERE COMPLIMENTARY ALONG WITH CHEESE TRAYS AND SHRIMP. THE BOAT IS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL AND I HAD A GREAT TIME ON MY BIRTHDAY (NEW YEARS EVE). THIS IS THE SECOND TIME WE HAVE CELEBRATED ON THIS BOAT AND IT SURE BEATS GETTING SQUISHED BY THE CROWDS ON THE DOCK!

- Great way to spend New Year’s Eve
It was a great combination of being at a popular event without having to deal with the crowds. The wooden sailing ship was in beautiful condition. The staff was courteous and responsive to our needs. The provisions were delicious chicken wings, hot and meaty; and the champagne just kept flowing. We were located right across from where the Schooner Wharf Wench was lowered at midnight. And the other passengers were diverse and interesting. Lovely time and we would do it again !

- Good Views
The boat provides a private view of the Dropping of the Pirate Wench from the mast. As Europeans used to massive firework displays at New Year, the event was fun. There was free flowing champagne and some crudites and dips to wet our tastebuds, and the crew worked hard to integrate everyone who wanted to be integrated without being intrusive. As relative oldies we were happy to pay the relatively high price to be able to sit and be served in comfort rather than fight our way among the crowds on shore. It suited what we wanted perfectly.

- Safe, pleasant, fun evening.
Food was good, service was great, drinks were limited in variety, but plentiful. Great view of the pirate wench drop. Nice people as fellow passengers. Glad I experienced it, beautiful vessel.

- New Year’s Eve Bash!
We enjoyed a delightful evening on the Schooner America 2.0. The boat was tied up at the epicenter of Schooners’ Wharf’s New Years celebration. While a large crowd attended their event, we sat, listened to music, enjoyed appetizers and pleasant conversation. The crew was very hospitable. It was a great evening. Don’t go; there were very limited tickets and I need room to bring all of my friends next year.
