Hello all,
1995 GW SailFish, SNE member out of Westport, MA, family of 4, daughters 9 & 11.
Looking to take a "long" trip to NYC / Statue of Liberty over the 4th of July 2011. I understand it could be daunting but I want to do something like this before my girls get to old and want to do other things.
I figure (weather permiting) 2 nights transient to get there, two nights transient in NYC and two nights transient return.
My first thought is one day from Westport to Boats Incorporated in Niantic Connecticut, stay there a night both because of its location as well as visiting the SNE club home port.
Perhaps a night around the Kings Point area. Then two nights in the city and of course return.
Any thoughts, suggestions, advice on my idea as well as docking and such would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance and enjoy your boating. Can't wait to put in!
JB
