Also another day I plan on going to NY Harbor, any opinions on that?
Currents? Rocks?


NY Harbor is an exciting place to go boating for a lot of reasons but
it is not particularly friendly to small boats. If you lose power or
steering you can get into considerable trouble in no time at all. You
will also find it a bit choppy for a 21 footer.

Make sure your boat is in good shape, have a working VHF radio and
know how to use it, carry an anchor with plenty of line, and and have
an up to date SeaTow membership.
