Public Boat Tours

Take a ride aboard our 100% solar-powered tour boat Solaris! Owned and operated by the Hudson River Maritime Museum, Solaris can accommodate up to 24 people and runs entirely on her onboard solar panels - no shore power or generator needed.

The Hudson River Maritime Museum is located at 50 Rondout Landing, Kingston NY 12401. Please be sure when you arrive that you are boarding our tour boat, Solaris, and not another vessel docked along the Rondout Creek. Often, visitors can confuse Solaris with the vessel located next door, the Rip Van Winkle II. Solaris is operated by the Hudson River Maritime Museum whereas the Rip Van Winkle II is operated by Hudson River Cruises.

You can purchase tickets online or call 845-338-0071 to register by phone. Looking for book a private charter? Please fill out the form below by clicking on the "book a private charter" button.
