Thanks David. Joe lives in New Milford NJ, near the George Washington
bridge so NY, Jersey shore and Southern CT are accessible to him.

Stephen, where is his home base? I was quoted ~$750/month for a slip in
Stamford, CT. It was 3x what i was paying in Seattle. In the end I gambled
and decided to wait for a town resident mooring in the Greenwich town
harbor. I just made it through the wait list and now have to wait for a
mooring to be sunk. A lost summer.
