##About Northern Lights
A Coast Guard Certified Captain and extremely friendly and knowledgeable crew who are trained to help in the event of an emergency operate Northern Lights. The motor yacht Northern Lights is stylized after the classic New England 1920s-style steamships. She is one of the most comfortable and versatile cruise vessels in Boston Harbor. Northern Lights is 115-feet in length, features six bathrooms, and provides ample seating throughout the ship for up to 50 passengers. She is built for taking groups of people on spectacular sightseeing adventures. Thus, she is excellent for taking out groups of friends and family to see the harbor. Sit back and relax in our climate-controlled (heating and air conditioning) cabin or enjoy the sea breeze on our open top deck. Be sure to visit our fully stocked bar on the main deck to purchase refreshments.
