Hoopster95 Posted September 28, 2019 #1 Share Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) Hi everyone, I was on Classic Harbor Line’s sunset champagne cruise out of Chelsea Pier 62 yesterday leaving at 6:15pm, and Riviera has just come down the Hudson once she left the Manhattan Cruise Terminal at 6pm. We sailed side by side all the way down the Hudson on Riviera’s port side, so I could only capture her with the NJ skyline. We crossed behind her stern once we were close to Lady Liberty as Riviera lined up to head farther out towards the Verrazano Bridge. Thought I’d Share some photos 🙂 Don't know why, but this photo below was to be the first as we were just coming out of Pier 62, and now I can’t change it from my iPhone.

bob brown Posted September 29, 2019 #5 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Great shots! I used to enjoy watching ships sailaway from the Chart House restaurant in Weehawken, NJ... but this looks like a better way of doing it....plus, no need to 'cross' the river to get there...🙂 View from the Chart House, courtesy of PTZ Port NY Webcam... https://www.portnywebcam.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJB Posted September 29, 2019 #6 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Great photos. We were on Marina a few years ago and sailing down the Hudson was one of the best sailaway's in over 30 years of cruising. Have driven over the bridge many hundreds of times but going under it was amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TKS Posted October 2, 2019 #9 Share Posted October 2, 2019 Thanks for these pics, Hoopster95. We will be on Riviera in ~3 weeks and will see NY from onboard. You have really whetted our appetite! I can hardly wait! Better start thinking about packing more seriously, I guess.☺️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ2002 Posted October 3, 2019 #10 Share Posted October 3, 2019 Very nice pictures, thanks very much for sharing. We just sailed this route, in reverse, on the Regent Navigator. Sadly, it was during the early morning darkness and I was still asleep. ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
