This is Pilot’s final weekend this season. She’s reached the ripe old age of ONE HUNDRED and will be headed off to the shipyard for some well earned restoration.

Put on your most nautical sweater and join us one last time as we celebrate with cocktails, oysters, and views galore! Oh, and the best lobster roll in Brooklyn.

Simply walk aboard or click the link in our profile for reservations. We’re looking forward to one last goodbye before setting sail into the sunset…

Pilot celebrates her 98th birthday this week! She was launched September 30th, 1924 and truly has seen it all, from patrolling the coast in WWII to exploring the south pacific with Jacques Cousteau to serving up oysters and cocktails in Brooklyn. We’ll be going strong for another month or so. We’d love to have you aboard!
