Newtown Creek, but not when it's crowded in Summer.
What I like to do is to turn the engine off on the tender, and just let the wind blow it up or down the upper reaches of the river, preferably holding a glass of wine at the same time. It's a very good antidote to Federated Identity Management.
East Head on a nice Summer's evening after everyone has gone home. It goes from tangled anchor chains to solitude in about an hour - amazing. Take the tender to the beach. Go for a walk and then back to the boat to sit and watch the sun go down
Scaryport /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif, oops Maryport /forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif for berthing, Whitehaven for a quick visit then Troon /forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif. If you have never been to troon you need to go just for Scotts overlooking the marina and the food..... how this has never come up with a mitchelin star or two.
But you can't go past Douglas, great place to go, see and enjoy.
However we holiday in Poole, and sail from Largs and Hamble
So, anywhere is good for us /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
