There’s something so cool about seeing our GPS dot just floating out there.

We pull into an anchorage at Sandy Hook, NJ at 11 am, 28 hours after we left Lewes, DE. The mid water tank runs out so I switch to the smaller, forward one which should last about 4 days. After being anchored for an hour, there is no water and we realize there must be a leak somewhere. It makes no sense to stay longer with no water. We head up to NYC and arrive at 3 pm. We stay on the NJ side at Liberty Landing Marina. These are Matt’s old sailing grounds – he learned on the Hudson River in his 12-foot Laser and was part of a yacht club at this very marina. The marina is gorgeous – not only does it have great showers but it also has a 24-hour access lounge. It is situated near a huge park and has an amazing view of NYC. I tell Matt I could stay for a month.
