Classic Harbor Line New York —

The best way to see new york city.

Locals and visitors alike can enjoy the top landmarks of NYC from the decks of Manhattan’s finest tour boats. Classic Harbor Line yachts – both sail and power boats – offer year-round private charters and tours in New York Harbor.

We look forward to hosting you on one of our many NY Harbor cruises and sightseeing boat tours. As a top-rated New York City sightseeing tour, you’ll see all of NYC’s best tourist attractions from the water. It’s the best way to see New York City!

Classic Harbor Line New York

As designer, builder, and operator of classically inspired boats, we provide cruises for both day and nighttime tours of New York Harbor aboard finely crafted vessels featuring teak decks, varnished mahogany rails, and gleaming brass fixtures.

Whether buying tickets for one of our New York Harbor sightseeing boat tours to cruise out to see the Statue of Liberty or privately chartering one of our large sailboats or motor yachts for an office outing, you are sure to find yourself on a beautiful boat, surrounded by warm and friendly service, plying through the majestic New York City waterways.

“The Luxury Yacht Sunset Cruise was nothing short of perfect. The staff is extremely friendly and courteous, and my date and I had a great time aboard the ship. The interior of the yacht is very comfortable with an enormous amount of class. It’s also impeccably kept. I would go again in a heartbeat!”

– Sunset Cruise Customer

Dedicated to exceeding expectations for locals and visitors alike while they enjoy the unique wonders of New York City from the water. Classic Harbor Line hopes for the privilege of hosting you on a relaxing, inspiring, and breathtaking NYC boat tour through the waters we proudly call home.

Nick Meredith Hardy

Nick founded Classic Charters to specifically promote classic yachts, and to provide the lovers of classic lines and those who appreciate beautiful yachts with the opportunity to experience luxury yacht chartering at its best. Owner Nick Hardy has over 45 years of experience owning and chartering yachts, fuelled by his enthusiasm for the classic lines and the preservation of these luxurious works of art from a bygone era. Today, with his son Dominic and their team, they continue to channel their experience into building one of the world’s premier collections of classic sailing and motor yachts to help preserve and promote the beauty of these wonderful yachts.

Dominic Meredith Hardy

Dom has travelled all over the world in pursuit of new and exciting adventures. Some of his highlights include planning and documenting a ‘social enterprise’ expedition from Alaska to Argentina, sailing all over the Med and Northern Europe, learning to paraglide, and surfing swathes of the west coast of Portugal.

He brings a high level of professionalism and integrity to his work combined with a rich mix of experience and ideas for new adventures on land and sea. The ocean is very much Dom’s happy place so he is hugely passionate about ocean conservation which he is weaving into the Classic Charters DNA by promoting and supporting responsible practice in the yacht industry. He still has Patagonia and Antarctica on his bucket list but is happiest when in, on, or at least close to any stretch of sea!

Whether it is the ultimate adventure with your friends, a professional expedition, or ultimate relaxation with your family. Dom is excellent at bringing new and fresh ideas to create exceptional charter experiences.
