Oyster Bay to Jersey City

Chris Steingraber

Tow of Frers 55 from Oyster Bay to Jersey City. Was able to tow under motor, under motor sailing and while under full sail alone on the tow vessel Pearson 10M. Fought current entering the East River and made it to the minute perfect timing for 9:08pm slack current at Hell Gate so that was a hige success in the navigational planning and timing. Communicated with commercial traffic within the East River to announce and agree on passings. Arrived safely and dropped the anchor North of Ellis Island.
