Overview
Get ready for an adrenaline-pumping adventure! This high-speed boat ride is powered by twin jet engines, guaranteeing sharp twists, thrilling turns, and plenty of splashes along the way.
Craving speed? The Beast is a fierce, neon-green powerhouse built for excitement - and definitely not for the faint-hearted. Departing from Pier 83, this electrifying experience will have you racing down the Hudson at up to 40 knots, flying past Rockefeller Park and The Battery with jaw-dropping (and slightly blurred) views of Manhattan’s iconic skyline.
As you near Ellis Island and the Statue of Liberty, you’ll have a chance to snap some photos and take in the breathtaking sights of the Brooklyn Bridge before the engines roar back to life, launching you on a heart-racing ride back to Manhattan’s shores.

Unglaubliches Erlebnis
H.-G. ·Adrenalin und Sightseeing in einer Tour. Man wurde an den äußeren Rändern des Bootes nass, aber das war es wert. Das Lächeln hielt noch Stunden danach.
An excellent 30 minute ride at SPEED!
