I am looking to bring a boat from Brooklyn up the Hudson to Long Island Sound back to Stratford Ct. Are there any restrictions remaining in New York Harbor from The 9-11 attack? Thanks Greg Ketley

You better use the East river or come back through the harlem river,but they throw beer bottles at you in the harlem river, and no I dont think there are any restrictions

NYC Restrictions
I have not been checking what restrictions are still in place since the boat is up the the hard until Spring, BUT I believe they are still IN PLACE. I say that because we still have the Coast Guard anchored off of Indian Point Necular(sp?) Plant. So If they are still have restrictions 50 miles up the river then I would expect them down in NY Harbor. You may want to give them a call or check their Web Site.

East River Transit
This last fall i sailed fron Long Island Sount thru NY Harbor into the Great South Bay. At that time the only restriction was that I entered below the Throgs Neck and exited past the Versanazzo between 8 A.M. and 4 P.M. I don"t know if these restrictions still exist but you should be able to call on a land line , Group acticities NY or call your local coast guard on VHF 16(which is what I did) and get current information. Good luck and watch the East River tidal direction
