Please join us for the AIMU Field Trip “Port of NY and NJ: A Working Waterfront” aboard the Classic Harbor Lines classic style motor yacht “Manhattan II”. Our group will depart from Chelsea Piers in NYC at 9:00 AM sharp (8:30 AM arrival), for a waterborne tour of various Port Authority terminals across New York Harbor and return to Chelsea Piers at 1:00 PM. There is a sound system on board that extends to the outside deck area so that all attendees will benefit from the lectures by various marine subject matter experts who will join us to take the opportunity to instruct on the entire trip with particular attention to the ocean marine industry, history, and exposures to take advantage of all there is to learn.
