Busy little harbor…

Radar & AIS blips all around us.
NY Harbor

We first dropped anchor in behind Ellis Island, expecting to be in the lee of the southerly winds and sea we saw all day.

But the wind shifted east and this famous island offered no protection.

SO, we came in around the corner and picked up a slip at Liberty Landing Marina.

Long Day – 46 miles today from Merrick NY – but now that we are up and “inside” the Hudson River, weather windows will be easier to negotiate. No big open water until Lake Ontario!

Weather / sea state was best today… so we had to take advantage!

No blog post of this harbor would be complete without a pic of Lady Liberty!
The tide helped push us most of this day‘s route. 5 hours.
