No mere bar-on-a-boat, Water Table is a full-fledged dinner cruise on a WWII-era Navy patrol ship, departing from the edge of Greenpoint and sailing south toward Liberty Island for a (not quite) three-hour tour. Owned by a former wine director at Brooklyn’s Rye and DuMont and her wife, Water Table’s meal is modeled on New England tavern fare (think lots of lobster) and the wine list is as comfortably eclectic as one might expect. Go for amazing views of the city, but don’t forget to look around inside, as well—the lovingly restored ship is full of period detailing that’s catnip for design and maritime enthusiasts alike.
