I was at Pier 88 today for Fleet Week. Several large ships come in once a year and allow people to board them.
For some reason, and I think its Navy's personnel's fault and not pier employees, there were long lines waiting to board the ship with no explanation as to how long the wait is likely to be and what your options are . It seems that in one direction, to see several ships there was a wait while the other direction, to see only one, there was no wait.
After about a half hour wait when we didn't move i walked through the gift shop and went on the one ship, the HMS Scott.
Visiting the ship was lots of fun. The crew was friendly.
Fleet week is worth a visit but give yourself lots of time.
