My graduation party was on a yacht, and honestly, it was awesome kind of like an all-inclusive vibe. I’m not sure how much the tickets were since everything was covered: the photographer, DJ, food, and the yacht itself. But there were unlimited drinks, and the staff was really chill and helpful if you needed anything. It’s totally worth it perfect for taking photos with the Manhattan skyline at night and just relaxing for a few hours. Parking nearby is about $33 for over 2 hours, but if you’re going with friends, you can split it and it’s not too bad.

Had an amazing time at the yacht party! Tickets were super affordable—only $25—and once onboard, my friends and I decided to go in on bottle service for about $200, which broke down to just $50 each. Totally worth it! We had our own table and enjoyed the central air downstairs, which was a lifesaver. There’s also a rooftop upstairs, but honestly, most people ended up downstairs where the real party was. The music was great, the vibes were fun, and it felt like a mini club on the water. Highly recommend this if you’re looking for a fun, budget-friendly night out on the water with friends

Went for the 11pm boat party cruise got there at 10:30 stood in line for over an hour, our boat didn’t leave til after midnight! By that time everyone was pretty much tired and was sleeping on the floor smfh 😩 Food was very disappointing. The Dj sucked! So I had to make the best of it…Only thing I enjoyed was the views 🤷🏾‍♀️

If you want to stand around and wonder if you’re in the right line and never get any clarification then this is the place for you. If you want to go on a boat ride for under 2 hours this is the place for you. If you want no music and straight wait around mode for at least 2 hours then this is the place for you. The boat is small, the dance floor is small, if you pay extra for “skip the line” or “vip” that doesn’t mean anything.
