Default Summer slip near NYC or Montreal or Toronto: your opinions

@Gogarty.news.bway.net:

Larry to the contrary notwithstanding, for one summer, New York City.
See my previous post. Just consider the several bodies of water you

can
explore in a few days, always to come back to your slip. All of Long
Island Sound. South Shore of Long Island with Great South Bay and Fire
Island of legend. New York Harbor itself, a great day sail with

country
cosuins. Raritan Bay, Sandy Hook and Sandy Hook National Poark withg
its (blush) Federally-sanctioned nude beach Up thre Hudosn Rive, but I
presume woyu would arive in this area by coming down the Hudson River.
Another thought is the chance to sail in the open sea out past Ambrose
and experience the very different mode of sea behavior from that in

any
enclosed body of water. Then you can come ashore at your slip, take in

a
ball game, go to the tennis courts, ride into town to all the

theaters,
museums, etc., etc. Not to foret the fireworks on the Fourth in the

East
River. Etc.



The whole time I was sailing those waters, I'd be watching for body
parts...(c;]
