Why You Should Go: With all due respect to foliage lovers, the beginning of the fall only means one thing to most New Englanders: summer is over. Instead of spending the rest of August and September lamenting all your summer plans that never materialized, take advantage of the harbor’s cool breezes (and the loose seasonal restrictions on showing up to work a little late on Fridays), with a voyage aboard The Boatonian’s Thirsty Thursday Sunset Sail Booze Cruise.

What You Should Know: Set sail any Thursday between now and September 20^th, and get ready for a three-floor harbor party you won’t forget. The Boatonian is the top shindig on the sea, with some of the area’s hottest DJs spinning all night, and plenty of snacks, beer and alcohol for sale. So save your relaxation days for the fall, and spend your last days of summer outside, on the water, getting crazy.
