Beginning at the Navy Yard, you and your private group will step aboard an electrically powered, 18-foot boat. This one-of-a-kind craft features a built-in picnic table and is perfect for sharing with friends and family. Bring along a delicious lunch, sip on your favorite brew, or play a round of cards – the possibilities are endless!

Plus, your boat’s speed will not exceed 3-4 knots (5-7 miles/h). It’s great for beginners and anyone looking to soak up the sights without the sound of a noisy engine.
