Pt Jefferson -> Oyster Bay -> Pt Washington

Sept 16th Oyster Bay
Sept 17th, 18th, 19th, & 20th Pt Washington
 NYC skyline in site, headed into Oyster Bay, NY.
Beautiful homes and boats in Oyster Bay, very glad we decided to stop here. Great anchorage.
Execution Rock in the middle of LI Sound.
The remains of our mooring line after a very windy day and night in Pt Washington.
We saw a gust of 46 knots.  That's enough for me, we decided to stay here 4 days. Free moorings makes it easy to do.
On our way to City Island for a couple of days, small yacht with a helicopter on the stearn on our way out of Pt Washington.
Harbor lined with homes like this one, fine sand from this harbor was used for cement and sent to NYC for building skyscrapers beginning in 1863. Finally made a decision to leave the boat on a mooring at PT Jefferson for a week or so and  head to NH for Emily and Isaac's wedding.
