In our previous video we took you down New York’s Hudson River from Catskill to Croton-On-Hudson. In this sequel we’ll show you our Half Moon Bay Marina departure in real time, but did we fix that failed bow thruster? We'll take you down the rest of the mighty Hudson with its spectacular scenery on full display, ultimately cruising alongside the iconic New York City skyline before reaching the southern tip of Manhattan. Then it’s up the East River with its wicked current and on into the notorious Hell Gate - but was it really hell? The Long Island Sound is our ultimate destination for a wonderful homecoming of sorts at another fantastic marina.
The crew (including Jasper) is in top form and the arrival beverages, as always, are super tasty!

Thanks for coming along! Please leave any questions or comments below.

We aim to give you a feel for what life's like aboard for us and hope you enjoy it, perhaps relate to it or maybe even learn something. But it's simply our story and the way we do things. Nothing more, nothing less.

In the video we talk about the excellent service we got from Junior at JR Boats Works. Since we love to pay it forward... if you're ever in need of help on the lower Hudson or western Long Island Sound it would be worth your while to give him a call. https://jrboatsworks.com
