Want to see New York’s working waterfront from the water? Saturday is your chance, with tours presented by the Working Harbor Committee for Working Harbor Day. The boat tours start at 10:30 and depart from Pier 63 Maritime, which is at West 23rd Street in Chelsea. Tickets are $10 for adults and $6 for children. There are three different trips available that take in either Manhattan, Brooklyn or New Jersey and Staten Island. The tours are apparently quite popular, but you can reserve a spot online. (About 2,500 people apparently did this last year.)

The Brooklyn tours, which take in the waterfront from the Navy Yard to the Erie Basin (see the Ikea site from the water!) depart at 10:30, 1:30 and 2:30. (The photo above is one of GL’s of the Brooklyn Navy Yard.) You can check the site for the schedule for the other tours. (Hey, GL is Brooklyn-biased.)
