Alternate Summer Cruise - Block Island, Gardiner's Bay,  Peconic Bay, Shinnecock Canal & Bay

The regular DIYC Summer Cruise sounds wonderful. However with fuel costs being what they are the DIYC power contingent (Just Desserts, Til & Ceilidh) has made plans to stay closer to home. We will be joining the start of the regular cruise in Stonington and then splitting off for a stay at Block before heading for Long Island. Ports of call are Montauk, 3 Mile, Sag & West Neck before we venture into the Peconic Bays. Thence for those without sticks, through the Shinnecock Canal into Shinnecock Bay and the Great South Bay of Long Island where we never have been. See the attached itinerary. We would be happy to have any boats who cannot make the regular cruise, accompany us for any or all of the Alternate Long Island Cruise. Joan Marcus has made our float plan and can be contacted if you have any questions.
