PUBLIC & PRIVATE TRIPS ON THE HUDSON RIVER

Whether you’re cruising with family, planning a sunset date, or booking a private charter for your team — we’ve got you covered.


Departing from Riverfront Green Park in historic Peekskill, our trips combine scenic views, local history, and relaxed hospitality with a touch of old-school charm.

About us

The Evening Star began as a 1960s U.S. Coast Guard buoy tender — built to work, not impress. After years on the Long Island Sound and Erie Canal, she came to Peekskill in 2010 and has been part of the riverfront ever since.

Now a 39-passenger tour boat, she offers scenic cruises, private charters, and local hospitality with a little grit and a lot of charm.

We’re New York Boat Co. — a small, local crew sharing the Hudson the way it should be: relaxed, honest, and unforgettable.
