Bob,
I'm just heading out now. (SW winds 10-15 Knots, Seas 2-4 Ft)
I ride my motorcycle on the weekends - the roads are less insane than the
sailing waters in our neck of the woods.
If you want some peace, try sailing mon-fri.

Friday night we watched the fireworks at Rye Playland....lots of boats hanging
close so we actually started to sail back as they started.
Dropped everyone off at City Island, then anchored out for the weekend. Great
White shark spotted in Hamptons....made me nervous when we cleaned the bottom
of the boat.
Great sailing Sunday...finally slacked off at about 6:00 pm...

You're 100% right. It was very crowded out beyond execution rock Friday and
Saturday. We try to squeeze in a few weekday sails each week. We'll sail
tomorrow and Wednesday. Friday I'm taking my folks out, then we're anchoring
out for the night. The weather appears to be giving us a good turn.
But those great White sightings in the Hamptons....yikes!

I also don't like sailing on weekends (too many PB and boobspit types), but
this year work, and the lack of Spring didn't cooperate.

Friday night we anchored near Capri, quite close, but clear of heavy traffic. A
lot of people were on the sound for fireworks. After dropping everyone off at
midnight we were too tired to sail the 2-3 hours we'd planned.
The next day we went to the entrance of cold springs harbor, which is a great
place to swim and hang out. There's very little traffic there most of the time.
Sunday we had great wind that lasted most of the day. The water's still a bit
cold, but it felt damn good anyway!
We're taking another short overnighter on Friday/Sat/Sun. Maybe the water will
warm a bit.

Quality bottom paint makes it unnecessary to mess with
any cleaning in the first six months. All it takes is to be
underway on a regular basis to keep it spic and span.

Now, since you answered so ignorantly, I know you and
Booby both sail only once in a long while so there is plenty
of time and dead water to allow crap to build up on the
bottom.

It's not a good place to be after dark. I've already said that several
times.

Why? We've been there in spring and fall. It was very quiet (until the fishing
boats in the morning).
Did some bad women beat you up over there? Do you want me to come protect you
from the "bad neighborhood?"
This is getting better and better!

Motor out to the sound and then sail to a better area - Westport,

Me? Talk about Lightening? I don't believe I've ever commented on it. But as long as
you're asking ...

I take comfort in the fact that no strategy has been demonstrated to work on a boat.
Since catamarans have the mast stepped on deck, and no easy way to feed a charge on the
mast into the water I choose to believe that the affects are totally random. About all I
can do is try to be located near something much taller than my mast and hope for the best.

That will keep the heavy stuff off, but you still get a little slime.

In Booby's case that slime is in the cockpit and it's not a little;
it's a lot!

A clean hull is of paramount importance to be sure. But having
to clean it after one or two months in the water like Booby's
boat is indicative of lousy paint.

Sounds good because we are planning on moving to Berks next year! We're just

possibly near Boyertown, or even more toward the sticks. In the meantime,
we're looking for the right place (1+ acres, 2500+square ft min,
outbuilding/barn would be nice so I can store all my toys out of the
weather. I'm thinking of transferring my sailing interests to the
Chesapeake after the move. Already checked out a marina in Oxford, MD.
BTW - the guy I took sailing yesterday lives on 662 in Amity.
Perhaps we'll meet one day, riding or sailing.
