Set sail for a good cause on a cruise with Classic Harbor Line this month. The New York Harbor Pride sails (benefitting the Hetrick-Martin Institute) offer a two-hour cruise on a classic Schooner where you'll get to see all the sights from a cool vantage point. This year, they're offering events on Saturday, June 29 and Sunday, June 30. Cruises begin from Chelsea Pier 62, then tour around the New York Harbor. A 400-square-foot Pride flag will flag above the ship as it sails past One World Trade Center, Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty.
Tickets for the Saturday cruise cost $125/adult, while tickets for the Sunday cruise cost $150/adult because you'll get a front-row seat to the Pride fireworks. On either day, you'll get a drink (beer, wine, champagne, or soda) with your ticket. You're welcome to bring a picnic onboard. The events benefit the nation’s oldest and largest nonprofit organization serving LGBTQIA+ youth; 100% of net ticket sales will be donated to HMI. For this fifth year of the collaborative benefit, Classic Harbor Line has a goal to raise $15,000 total funds for HMI.
