In today’s episode, we explore the destination of Port Washington NY. Port Washington is in Manhasset Bay, on the north side of long island, it’s near NYC, so it is a great stopover when transiting the East River and heading South or North via NYC. Manhasset Bay is mostly private homes, or more accurately, private mansions. It is well worth hoping in the dinghy and riding around. What a beautiful bay with huge mansions all along the shore. Some are old, classical looking mansions and others are newer, very modern looking. Part of The Great Gatsby movie was filmed in some of these mansions.
There is a great mooring field run by the town of Port Washington. You can get a mooring for $25/night and it includes the water taxi.
