Sandy Hook

Molly Brown dipped her hull in the Atlantic Ocean for the first (and last) time on this trip today. We left just after 06:30 and arrived right at 08:00. Nice easy ride up the coast. It was pretty hazy but we could see the NYC skyline. We didn’t do any exploring as it was a work day but there’s a National Park along the Sandy Hook shore that seems like it would be pretty cool. Ordinarily we would be on the hook and I’d fit visits in but we needed to get groceries so we are at Leonardo State Marina. Nice spot, surrounded by homes so quiet and only takes boats to 30’ … most of which are annual leases…. and very few are liveaboard. From our slip we look straight out to the Verrazano Bridge. Also has a beach area on bay that’s pretty popular with the locals. 39 miles today. Secchi 1.4 in 2.1MLeia mais
