The Venue

The Hornblower Infinity is an elegant yacht based at Pier 15 in the South Street Seaport. Two climate-controlled interior decks feature full-service bars, hardwood dance floors, and brass, silver, and mahogany accents throughout. Large windows on both levels keep the skyline visible from every seat. Above it all, the observation sky deck offers open-air, 360-degree views of the harbor, the Brooklyn Bridge, and the Statue of Liberty. Custom LED lighting and a built-in sound system make it one of the most in-demand event vessels in New York year-round, regularly booked for weddings, corporate events, and holiday galas.
