Yeah Wayne, that tracker is pretty cool.. I was just looking at maps of
NYC a year or so back wondering if you could cut right through. I
thought I heard years ago (probably around 9/11, that the routes through
were closed.


Are there any locks or gates to go through as you enter LIS?


If I read you correctly, it's a straight shot from The Narrows opposite Sandy
Hook to City Island via New York Harbor and the East River. No locks or low
bridges or gates. Stay to the west of Roosevelt Avenue and choose your time to
ride the flood up the river through Hellgate. Hang a right at Flushing Bay and
take a slip at World's Fair Marina hard by the Citi Field baseball stadium and
the No. 7 subway line direct to Times Square. The marina monitors VHF 71.


The passage was limited but not closed long after 9/11. You had to leave
Roosevelt Island to the east through a low-span drawbridge.


Cool... It's been a lifelong dream to make a trip down the CT River and
down to the city. Unfortunately right now I only have a 16 foot work
skiff so it may be a while before I ever make that trip

SPOT trackers are really cool for keeping family and friends updated as to
your travels. Not really a PLB, in that it doesn't call the emergency
system, and has some severe limitations WRT the ability to be used in a
marine emergency situation (antenna position, waterproof, etc.), but a neat
tool

To get tracking shown on a web page, you have to subscribe at ~150/year, but
if you're on a passage, it does allow folks to see where you are, the
progress you're making, and so on. Clicking the hybrid tab in the top right
of the screen gives you satellite views overlaid on a map view, too, so if
you're coastwise or islandwise, folks can see what you're going around if
there are nasty bits you needed to avoid, mostly of interest to marine-type
geeks/interested parties.

We use it on all our water-borne movements, and used to use it on land so
that those who were wondering how we were doing WRT getting to them could
see our progress, as well. The unit takes a GPS reading every 10 minutes or
so, and uploads them to SPOT's satellite(s?) whenever one goes over, so you
may not be able to see "real time" updates - but for the large view, it's
fine.

Highly recommended from this quarter :{))

Skip, currently ashore wrestling with a real estate loan disaster before
returning to the boat where we'll complete our refit and get under way
again, with hopes that our self-insured vessel isn't involved in a hurricane
where we now are, an unsafe yard for such conditions, before such event...
