LOVERS & FRIENDS: Hip Hop & R&B Boat Party Yacht Cruise NYC

Meet me at the dock—let’s cruise through the night like it's just us and the stars. #1 R&B Boat Party sets sails with iBoatNYC this summer!
About this Event

Welcome to Annual Lovers & Friends, where the waves sway to the rhythm of your favorite love songs, late-night jams and timeless Hip Hop & R&B classics. It’s giving Usher at golden hour, SZA under moonlight and a little Mary J. when the drinks hit just right.

We’re floating through the city with the smoothest soundtrack in the game—soulful vocals, 808s, slow burns and memories in the making.

Step into your main character energy.

✨ “If I ain’t got you,” “Can you handle it,” “Let me cater to you”—yeah, that's it. Come float with us.
