Yacht Manhattan

 

Step aboard this Classic Style Yacht! Manhattan is inspired by the famous (and infamous) commuter yachts of the Roaring Twenties!  These boats were commonplace in NY Harbor - owned by the ultra rich on the shores of Long Island Sound - Oil Barons and Wall Street tycoons outfitted long narrow boats with the ever-so-popular combustion engine.  Designed for speed and elegance, the Manhattan is outfitted with 1000 horse power John Deere Diesels, and will be traveling at safe comfortable "cruising speeds" while you enjoy a glass of award winning champagne, a bountiful Brunch, or perhaps an Architecture Tour.
