Your Hosts and Our Captains
Captain David learned how to sail at the age of 16 on the south shore of Long Island. David started Tribeca Sailing in 2013 to share his passion for sailing with the world. He fills his sails with facts about New York City, stories about personal experiences, and expert sailing techniques. In short, Captain David wants you to enjoy your boat tour and sail. He is a United States Coast Guard Licensed Master.
Captain Clark joined Tribeca Sailing’s team this year and has quickly become a valued member. Captain Clark has an extensive sail training record and a history as a video producer. He has an extreme passion for sailing and loves to share that passion with our guests. He is a United States Coast Guard Licensed Master.
With a sailing resume too long to post, it is fair to say, “What hasn’t Captain Matt done!”. From offshore experience to captaining large schooners, he has done it all. We are proud to have Captain Matt on the Tribeca Sailing’s team. He could work anywhere but loves sailing our boat Tara where he really gets to shine. He is a United States Coast Guard Licensed Master.

Thank you David - honestly hoping we get to see you again. Cantrell Norman2025-04-23Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the most wonderful experience sailing with Capt Clark on the Tara. Tribeca Sailing worked with me to coordinate an intimate sunset moment which included meeting me beforehand. They also took pictures of us on the boat. I highly recommend this experience! 5 stars Alex Beckstead2025-04-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I never understood what was so great about seeing the Statue of Liberty until I sailed with Captain Clark. After a quick and thorough safety briefing, we were out on the water. Stunning views of lower Manhattan, Brooklyn, and even Jersey city, but the highlight was the close up visit to Ellis Island and Lady Liberty. Clark was chill and knowledgeable and made this trip to New York one I will never forget. Coming back for sure. alexandra conroy2025-04-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dear David, I wanted to write and tell you how much my husband and I enjoyed our evening sail with Captain Clark last night. It was wonderful! Clark was a pleasure to spend time with and we were fortunate to have such wonderful weather. We look forward to sailing with you again. Thank you for such a special treat.

Fantastic day out on the water! We went out with a 5-year-old who loved it, too. A unique way to experience New York City. Thanks Captain Clark! Guido Desigis2024-10-29Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The first time we didn’t miss our sailing boat “stelladimare” during our holiday. Captain David loves sailing, we too and we could share a wonderful afternoon round Manhattan and more. cigdem oztabak2024-10-26Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. It was an amazing experience for my boyfriend’s birthday. Captain David was extremely skilled and helpful, and all six of us left the boat with joy and wonderful memories.Google rating score: 5.0 of 5, based on 434 reviews
