FAQ

Pier 66 Maritime home of the Lightship Frying Pan

Does the Frying Pan leave the dock?

No, she is permanently docked alongside Pier 66 Maritime in Hudson River Park.

I know entry is free, but do I need a reservation?

Entry to the ship is free. But if you want to make a reservation for a large group (25+), you can visit the Pier 66 Maritime reservations page for more information.

Can I eat on the ship?

Yes, we generally have open seating on the exterior deck of Lightship Frying Pan, and run table service there on the weekends.

What happened to the letters "Frying Pan" on the side of the boat?

Yes you are right, normally the ship has the words FRYING PAN on the side in white. We are going to send the boat to the shipyard for a big paint job very soon.
