J S,
You may be very correct in your history but
native New Yorkers of today call it 'Hell's Gate'.
I am sorry but I have heard it referred to
among ordinary sailors not by the elitist version.
While many sailboats in the past belong to the
Buckley crowd, us of lowly origin are the sailors
going thru today... Bill is gone...
So will you submit the changes to the dictionary folks?
Understand that I do appreciate your positive comment.
fair zephyrs,
