"There’s still time for anyone who promised themselves they’d yell “starboard” on a ship this summer to follow through. North River Lobster Co, a three-level boat docked at Pier 81 near West 41st Street that takes a short sail around the Hudson every hour, is running Thursday through Sunday. The whole thing feels like an amusement park ride with shellfish and alcohol. Ten dollars gets you a day pass that allows for unlimited rides, and, for roughly $23, you can get a decent lobster roll. Buy a pass here." - hannah albertine
