Looking back at New York
Lat 40 42 60; Long 74 02 47; Eng 894.12; 160 gal, Liberty Landing, New Jersey
We left Liberty Landing this morning at around 10:15 with no idea where we would stop. Moved out into the river and started heading north. Took us some time to reach the end of Manhattan but that was not he end of New York City since it stretched for several more miles until we got almost to Tarry Town. In case you don’t remember, Tarrytown is the home of the headless horseman. We considered anchoring around Tarrytown in the but since it was only 12:30 we continued to press on. Brenda thought that Newburgh was only about 20 miles upstream which would give an arrival time of around 2:30. It was a little further than that and we arrived at around 5:30. Passed by West Point but could not stop as no place to anchor. They apparently have tours.
We settled in and then went to dinner at a dockside bar with great ribs and chicken.
