We  <3  NY. 

We’re lucky to be here. Gil & I could have been adrift at sea in our dinghy! Until our arrival here, we’d just been rowing our dinghy into shore. But the distance between our mooring ball and the dinghy dock here in NYC called for lowering the outboard from Serenada’s rail onto the dinghy. That was done quickly enough, and off we went to explore the city streets and some of Central Park (after a shore shower, of course). The sun was down when we decided to take the ‘family car’ back to the boat. *#@%(!^ thing wouldn’t start?! Turns out, Captain Ron (aka Gil) …. by the way, if you’ve seen the movie, you’ll know that Captain Ron didn’t have a crew mate… (I take no responsibility for this) ….hadn’t filled the gas tank. “That was an oversight”  said Captain Ron (aka Gil) later.  I was ready to go looking for another Captain, and in NYC it might have happened....


Thankfully, Jorge & Kim were there for us!  We were rescued, and brought safely back to our ‘home.’ The dinghy now has a full tank.

We’ve been sightseeing….





...and enjoying being tourists
