The Cap'n's Commute is a free water taxi that's serving New York City commuters for a few days this summer and it aims to bring more moments of joy to monotonous mornings. Serving multiple points in Manhattan and Brooklyn, the branded water taxi by Cap'n Crunch provides a taste of Goodlife Coffee and a variety of Cap'n Crunch products, including limited-edition Cap'n's Commuter merch.
Kristin Kroepfl, Vice President and CMO of Quaker Foods North America, said "The Cap'n's Commute gives fans a unique opportunity to disrupt some of the everyday sameness with a little adventure and unrivaled crunch where they least expect it." The boat itself is something fun to look out for from the shore, since it's styled in a way that looks like the S.S. Guppy.
