East River

So we left the Rockaways and headed north. We are currently on a mooring at City Island. This pic is of the Brooklyn Bridge, I was still helming at that point. We had purposefully timed the leaving of the icky marina so we would have a flooding tide to carry us up the East River. I turned the helm over to Steve for the 10 kts passing Roosevelt Island and that’s with no sails!  Hells Gate was interesting and I could see how it could be treacherous. Right now, I’m Really looking forward to the rain stopping, so I can go ashore and get a shower!!
