Classic Harbor Line is thrilled to announce a unique dining experience. A dining experience that brings Manhattan’s esteemed Italian seafood restaurant, Marea, to the waters of New York Harbor. While Marea’s Central Park South location undergoes renovations this summer, we’ve partnered with Chef Lauren DeSteno to create Marea at Sea. It’s an extraordinary culinary journey aboard our schooner America 2.0.

Every Monday evening through the end of September, join us for a two-hour sunset sail featuring three exquisite courses of small bites. Chef DeSteno and her talented team have designed a menu that captures the essence of Marea. This offering is an unforgettable dining adventure on the high seas. To elevate your experience even further, we have also devised an optional wine pairing to add to your reservation.

Setting the Scene

Your evening begins at Pier 62, adjacent to Hudson River Park and Chelsea Piers. As we set sail down the Hudson River, you’ll be greeted with a complimentary glass of sparkling wine. Our first course features a delightful array of small bites, including a tuna tartare and caviar gougére, an East Coast oyster in escabeche, hamachi crudo, and branzino crudo with panzanella, perfectly paired with a soave classico from Veneto.

As we glide past iconic landmarks like Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty, the second course arrives. Savor the flavors of beef tartare, caponata-stuffed eggplant, a “seafood salad” skewer, and Marea’s signature astice (lobster) spoon with tomato, eggplant, and stracciatella, accompanied by a refreshing rosato wine from Puglia.

As the sun sets and the city lights up, we serve a final sweet course—a small cookie and a cream puff—paired with a sweet moscato d’Asti. The America 2.0 then returns to shore, leaving you with cherished memories of this extraordinary culinary cruise.
