Luxury private sailing charters launch in NYC for World Cup 2026, offering exclusive outdoor harbor experiences for elite travelers.
NEW YORK, NY, UNITED STATES, February 17, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — As New York prepares to welcome more than 1.2 million international visitors for the 2026 FIFA World Cup, luxury travelers are seeking refined, crowd-free ways to experience the city beyond match day. Go Sailing NYC, a Manhattan-based private sailing company, has introduced a series of Private World Cup Boat Charters designed for discerning guests who prefer wind-powered adventure over high-capacity sightseeing cruises.
Operating from Chelsea Piers, Go Sailing NYC offers fully private 2–4 hour sailing experiences for up to six guests aboard a 40-foot Beneteau sailboat. Each charter is captained by a USCG-licensed professional and designed to showcase New York Harbor’s most iconic views — including the Statue of Liberty, Brooklyn Bridge, and Manhattan skyline — under sail.
“With global events of this scale, true luxury becomes space and privacy,” said Captain Martin, founder of Go Sailing NYC. “Sailing offers something timeless and authentic — open air, wind power, and unobstructed skyline views — away from the intensity of the crowds.”
Elevated World Cup Fan Packages
For the 2026 tournament (June 13 – July 19), the company is introducing two curated fan experiences:
World Cup Team Party Decor – $500
Flag bunting in the cabin, team tableware, and decorative pillows on deck
World Cup Team Branding & Party Package – $15,000
Custom sails featuring your country’s flag and full team décor throughout the vessel, with a half-day of sailing. The branding package transforms the sailboat into a striking waterfront statement visible to 3.1 million people in Manhattan, plus an additional 1.2 million people viewing along the Jersey and Brooklyn waterfronts.
A Sophisticated Alternative to Crowded Attractions
MetLife Stadium will host eight matches, including the Final on July 19. While visitors travel between Manhattan and New Jersey for games, private sailing offers a serene interlude between match days.
Founded in 2018, Go Sailing NYC hosts over 1,000 guests annually and has been recognized as an award-winning charter company. With capacity limited to 35 charters per week during peak season, early reservations are strongly encouraged.
