Be on the water for one of the most historic tall ship races of America’s 250th celebration.

On July 8, 2026, Monty’s Ark Adventures will offer a special Five Sisters Cup Tall Ship Race Viewing Tour, departing at 6:00 AM from New Rochelle or Port Washington. This private charter is designed to travel down the East River and into the New York Harbor area in time for the known 9:00 AM Five Sisters Cup Tall Ship Race start.

The Five Sisters Cup is one of the signature maritime events of the Sail4th 250 celebration. The race is expected to include legendary sister ships such as USCGC Eagle of the United States, Sagres of Portugal, Mircea of Romania, and Gorch Fock of Germany.

This is a rare chance to see these majestic vessels from the water as they prepare to race out of New York toward Boston.

One day. One race. One unforgettable private charter experience.
