Default City Isld <--> BLock Isld


Re. a mini-cruiser single-handing sailing to/fm City Isld & Block
Island in mid-Sept. who wants reasonably long days traveling on the
water but would prefer a marina slip or at least a moorting rather
than anchoring, what's the "best" routes to/from in terms of
sights/accomodations?

If it becomes feasible to expand the trip to/fm Block Island, where's
the "best" place to go before returning to City Isld?

You should talk to Bobsprit on this... if there is anyone in NYC that is
more experienced with sailing day trips on the LIS with limited experience
and a non-existent skill-set...... you would be hard pressed to locate them.

For the sake of Safety....... please avoid any "advise" submitted by Jax.

It's "adviCe", dammit. Advise is a verb, what one does for
another. Advice is that which is given.

Although I'd agree, accepting either from JAX would be largely a
waste of time in the best case, dangerous in the worst.

It wasn't a typo, you've done it in two separate posts.

Lying, top posting, *******.

if you're thinking of reasonable distance in a day sail, port jeff on the
long island side is a reasonable half way point.
if port jeff is not doable , try northport.
both have good accomodations.

buy a crusing guide for long island sound

if you went on from block island, you could try cutty hunk.
