The yacht slips from Rowes Wharf and the city exhales: the skyline slides by in a slow, glittering arc as a small band fills the heated cabin with low jazz. Outside, the harbor pushes cool air against the hull and the city’s brick facades and modern towers keep time with each passing wake. Onboard, a short champagne tasting and chocolate-covered strawberries mark the evening with tactile, celebratory detail.
