Our Odyssey: Escape from Stuart
http://ourodyssey.blogspot.com/2014/04/escape-from-stuart.html
Saturday, April 19, 2014. At the north end of Lake Worth (the lake, not the eponymous village), in the town of North Palm Beach, Florida ( map. Notwithstanding my last post, wherein I opined that we might shove off Wednesday morning, the weather for an outside run deteriorated, and we held off for another couple of days hoping for good weather on the outside. Once we had the anchor set here. This morning we had intended to move. Fortunately, the raw water impeller. Is pretty easy to access on this genera...

Our Odyssey: Once in a blue moon
http://ourodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/08/once-in-blue-moon.html
Sunday, August 2, 2015. Once in a blue moon. We are still anchored off Pier-i. Vector as seen from Riverside Drive. Pier-i is in the foreground. The current is so swift it looks like we have a wake. But otherwise we've enjoyed most of what comes from the pier. Pier, as seen from our deck, filling up for The Great Gatsby. Inflatable projection screen is to the right. Lots of mallards living at the boat basin right now, including these five ducklings with their mother. We had arranged for a few things.

Our Odyssey: Nice visit in NJ
http://ourodyssey.blogspot.com/2014/07/nice-visit-in-nj.html
Thursday, July 24, 2014. Nice visit in NJ. We are at Hoffman's Marina West. In Brielle, New Jersey ( map. We are here in Brielle. Because my parents live just a few miles away, in Brick, and we wanted to visit with them. The Manasquan River actually runs through Brick, but it gets too shallow for us just upstream of the highway bridge, less than a mile from here. They drove down and met us yesterday, and after a brief tour of Vector. We weighed anchor Tuesday morning. We are glad we waited. The extra day...

Our Odyssey: New York, New York
http://ourodyssey.blogspot.com/2014/07/new-york-new-york.html
Friday, July 25, 2014. New York, New York. We are anchored in Gravesend Bay. Part of lower New York Bay, just north of Coney Island. And southeast of The Narrows ( map. We have a fantastic view of the Verrazano-Narrows Bridge. Verrazano-Narrows bridge at night. Hard to get a good shot from a moving platform. Sunset over the bridge was spectacular (above). Sensing the anxiety of the departure, George comforts mommy by holding her hand under way. The bottom drops off rapidly. Ambrose Channel is the main sh...

Our Odyssey: Retracing our steps
http://ourodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/08/retracing-our-steps.html
Tuesday, August 4, 2015. We are under way. In Long Island Sound, east bound for Port Jefferson harbor. Now that we are back in open water, I can use some of our time under way to blog. It's a beautiful day on the sound, with little traffic. This morning found us at anchor in Manhasset Bay ( map. Stop Unlike our last visit. The World Trade Center tower and lower Manhattan, coming down the Hudson. We had a whopping four knots behind us, and we whizzed past the United Nations doing nearly 11 knots. The pump...

Our Odyssey: Heat wave on the Hudson
http://ourodyssey.blogspot.com/2015/07/heat-wave-on-hudson.html
Wednesday, July 22, 2015. Heat wave on the Hudson. Some very pleasant weather at anchor today after a very hot few days. Saturday night in Gravesend Bay was still pleasant, but we awoke Sunday to still air and a haze over the city that often accompanies summer heat. Approaching Manhattan. Haze and heat often go together here. We weighed anchor on a decent flood for the four-hour jaunt upriver to Alpine, New Jersey, where we anchored just offshore of the Palisades. Interstate Park ( map. We actually cruis...
