The experience
Don't miss the BEAST... New York's very own thrill ride! "Mad Dog," your daring captain, will take you for a wet n' wild ride through the New York harbor. Hold onto your hats because for 30 fun-filled minutes, you'll be soaring past the skyscrapers at a heart-pounding 45mph. We'll stop for a close-up of the Statue of Liberty where you'll have a quick photo-op. It's a pure thrill!
Cruises leave on the hour from noon to 7 pm or dusk. You must be at least 40 inches tall to ride the Beast. For more information, visit www.circleline42.com or, call 212-563-3200.
