That list omits Eatons Neck, [barely] accessible at all tides to our
7-ft draft. It also has power boats in the day time, although none I
would describe as "drunken frat boys."

Only went in to that Eaton's Neck hole once. Didn't like it. Struck me as
spooky.



Yes. What makes it spooky is that you don't hear any motor vehicles or
trains--very unusual on Long Island. That is because the surrounding
land is a nature preserve. There actually is a road to the CG station
on the other side of the hill, but you normally don't hear it.

I like it that way. One of my favorite anchorages in Maine, for
exactly that reason, is the Cow's Yard, at Head Harbor Island in
Maine.
