June 7- We left Manasquan at 8:30 am and headed out the inlet into the Atlantic again for the last leg to New York. It was a little rolling and we had a following sea all the way up so we were glad it was a fairly short run today. It was great to see the New York skyline coming into view and the busy harbour. We headed away from that into a long bay at Sandy Hook to our marina called Great Kills marina on Staten Island. This marina is owned and run by an Italian family who can not do enough for us. We met a fellow looper who has just finished the loop with his family (2 girls and 1 boy ). We actually passed him up in Georgia and we both stayed at the Isle of Hope together. He helped us into the dock and then proceeded to offer us his car at any time if we needed anything. We are planning to stay here for a couple of days to see some of New York.
