New York City!

We made the trek into New York Harbor today.  This is Coney Island at the entrance.  

Alexis was at the helm.  Note the Verrazano Bridge crossing the "Narrows" in the background.

Our AIS shows the multiple targets moving about the harbor.  

As I was posing for this shot, a USCG boat approached us at high speed.  

Apparently Cajuns are a security problem!  Note the big gun on the bow.

They checked us out, and let us go on our way.  Good thing Alexis was at the helm....

In all the hubbub, the ubiquitous jet skier.  

NYC skyline.

Even the NYPD took a look at us.  Come on, are we that bad?


The NYPD let us go without stopping us, drawing a smile from the captain.  

This is one of those moments we will not forget!



Our marina is just past Lady Liberty, and it was a tight squeeze as it is filling up for July 4.  We have a front row seat for the fireworks!  We will cover that in another post.
