Party Time: On a Boat

It’s Party Time on the high seas. Here, the captain of all summer cocktails, a killer fish taco, and everything else you need to gussy up your place after you’re done swabbing the deck.

	A Lot on Your Plate Eating off paper plates makes you want to walk the plank. Buck up and spring for Thomas Paul tableware ($4-$60) with whale, anchor, and ship motifs.
	Land, Ho Be forewarned: Rough winds cause even the most cast-iron stomachs to shake, so imbibe a Caribbean Navy Swizzle from NYC’s PKNY while you can still see the shore.
	Palms Up No tiki-tacky Hawaiian tourist tops here: It’s Reyn Spooner for Opening Ceremony ($130-$300). Slip into palm tree prints or a ’60s-themed dress to channel your inner Gidget.

	Turn Up the Bass Out in Montauk, they’re having a good time at the newly opened Ruschmeyer’s hotel, kitchen, and bar. Reel in the fun with wild striped bass with summer squash salad and grape salsa.

	Siren’s Song Are you on a boat, motherf****r? If so, kick off your flippy floppies, find your sea legs, and get down to business with this collection of sweet yacht rock jams.

We’ll show you what to do with a drunken sailor. Check out the rest of our Party Time ideas.



	Schutz & Smitten Look like you belong in Rio with Brazilian-made pumps and sandals. Cover up with Smitten’s knits if that Atlantic breeze gives you a chill. Both are on our sample sale site.
