The Sand Hole -- Oyster Bay
 
And the Sand Hole is a stop for boats transiting the Sound.


no, it isn't. It is a weekend stopping off point for drunken frat boys in
powerboats. a stop for those "transiting the Sound" is City Island, Port
Washington, Oyster Bay, Oyster Bay West Harbor (both near Sand Hole),
Northport, Port Jeff and **maybe** Matituck Inlet, plus all those rocky,
exposed anchorages on the CT shore.

Any transits figuring to use Sand Hole at a stop point has rocks for brains.

You're losing the last portion of your mind jaxie. Or are you also claiming the
Connecticut River and the Kennebec and Penobscot are part of the ICW? This is a
listing of a variety of bridges, not just the ICW.

jeffies, put your reading glasses on. better yet, ask your wife to read it to
you.

What? That's a listing of bridges around the country, not the ICW. Nowhere
does it support your claim. Sober up and try again, jaxie.

Are you actually claiming the ICW goes up the Hudson River???

jeffies, here are the bridge clearnances on the ICW up to Troy NY (on the
Hudson River, jeffies,north of Albany, capital of the state of New York and

a
three hour drive north by car from New York City, all of which is west of

LIS),
according to the USCG.

He didn't say it was
the ICW, he compared it to the ICW.


why?

And you realize, of course, that the ICW does go through Long Island Sound.


only if you consider LIS to be part of the Hudson River.


Cripes, here we go again with another one of Doodles definition rants.

it is the output of "ICW" "Albany".

jeffies, the ICW, or actually known as "Atantic Intercoastal Waterway", runs to
Troy NY.

If one wishes to depart the AICW at **Upper** NY Harbor to enter Long Island
Sound and then on northward, one is free to do so.

Just as one is free to depart the AICW at Charleston SC to go to Bermuda.

btw, LOTS of barges anchored in the Sand Hole waiting for the latest DVDs,
right?

jeffies, you are a piece of work.

And how does this support your claim? Nowhere does it say the Hudson River
is
part of the ICW.

come on, shen, you don't know what an anchor is. stay out of this discussion.
jeffies is tryin' to convince us that barges transiting LIS stop in the Sand
Hole for diesel fuel and the latest DVDs.

He didn't say it was
the ICW, he compared it to the ICW.

Ahhhhh Jeff, there's yer problem! Ole "doodles" (LOL I like that, Shen,
fit's jaxass well) is talking about the INTERcoastal waterway, whereas
you are discussing the INTRAcoastal waterway.
Just as a point of interest, Bowditch claims (at least my edition) that
the intracoastal waterway starts at Manasquan Inlet and runs to the
Mexican border. However, many carry it further North to Cape Ann (my
words, the last sentence)

You seem to be in a really bad mood today. Transients do indeed stop at the
Sand Hole. Also, your characterization of the usual, crowd there as "drunken
frat boys" is way off the mark.
