Looks great!

He should come the other way around Long Island and visit us in the Great Sand Box!
 
He's just north of Ellis Island. If he goes another 30 miles, he'd be at our marina!
 
Looks like he is turning in by ellis island.
Is he taking a look or anchoring?
 
It appears he has lost control of the ship and the web cam!

If he anchors there, he should be ready to have a rocky morning.
 
Spinning in a circle by ellis island.
Whats up?
Killing time while marina gets ready for him?
 
anchoring out for the night... i usually anchor in the lower bay, either Great Kills or at Highland but i thought i'd try the anchorage north of Ellis. a little rolly but cant' beat the view!
 
Probably be rolly there all nite.
Lots of traffic thru there.
Was a great view comeing in.
 
Could be some thunderstorms later tonight. Be safe!
 
You might raise the suspicion of the CG, NYC or Federal Park Police, not many people anchor out there overnight.

They might be paying you a visit, just saying....
 
Yeah, he is pretty close to some special places they like to protect.
Might be smart to hail them and give them a heads up.
 
i thought about it but i'm well outside the security zone around Ellis island... it's listed in some cruising guides so i'm sure they're used to boats anchored there... we'll see!
 
Pascal,

Have a safe evening. Thanks for all the advice on bringing my boat to and from Florida solo!! It was an amazing trip. Can't wait to do it again.

All the best,

Jeff

you're welcom Jeff

wakes weren't too bad, i didn't roll out of my bunk! not a bad spot to anchor. I had loooked at the more protected anchorage by the park on the south side of the Statue but it was low tide and the entrance is a bit narrow so i didn't want to risk it.

any local knowledge on that spot is welcome!

will head up the East River in an hour or so, it's always a nice run.

Looks so flat.. Ready to play hooky and get the boat in the water
 
Looks like he got stopped right after the Throgs Neck bridge. CG I suppose.
 
yeah, routine boarding/safety inspection...quick and painless as usual.

anchored off Greenwich CT for the night, will go in the marina tomorrow for a couple days (oil change, etc...). nice run up the East river and into the sound, great weather this year!
 
Cam not updating.
Google shows stopped near Captains harbor?
