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

That's what you led us to believe a while back.
Were you lying then... or now?



I seek tosk and his gang of uneducated, racist white trash has taken
over rec.boats cruising, too.


Boy, you are really trolling me today. What's the matter? Ever since I
told those guys what you said you have been pretty careful... Gonna'
start up again?
