Capt. Robert and I want to express a sincere Thanks to all who participated in making our 1st efforts at something like this a success ! We can look foward to future events staged here as a result of the lasting impression we as a group made upon Manhattan,the U.S.C.G. and N.Y.P.D. The pictures are priceless and document well just why we do this and Love it so. Next year will prove to be Bigger and even Better! Thanks to all, Jim McP.

Looks like a great time. Arthureld, how was using that ramp in Port washington?
Port Washington was a great place to launch. Best of all, since I came before 9am, it was free.
I probably only burned 15 or 20 gal of gas to since Port Washington is so close to Manhattan.
I chose to launch off the northwest shore because my gf didn't want to travel too many miles by boat. I would have trailered to the Statue, but I don't have trailer brakes and my Ford Escape is kind of small to be towing that much weight in heavy traffic.
I was lucky to have ran accross Cap'n Kurt to guide me to Scrimshaws crowd. My GPS was out of order and I don't know the area at all.
Hi Whalerdog. That event was too cool.
Hope to see you there next year.
And don't forget about the Long Island event coming up - http://www.whalercentral.com/forum/viewthread.php?rowstart=20&forum_id=18&thread_id=4397
