NYC Ferry operated by Hornblower aims to provide a new, affordable way to travel between waterfront communities throughout New York City.

All ferries are equipped with ultra-efficient T3 engines to reduce emissions and we’re introducing the first T4 vessels in our fleet soon.
The innovative hull design will limit wakes and maximize fuel efficiency.
