GL: NYC 79th st Boat Basin

[Tommy Terrific]

Kevin, I happen to like the 79th Street boat basin moorings.  They are 
$30/day, buy 6 and get 1 free.  Six years ago, they were $15/day, buy 5 and 
get 2 free!  Ah, inflation.

Yes, there is some rocking from passing boats, and yes, the current rips 
through there, making getting on and off the dinghy a wee bit of a 
challenge.

BUT, at the top of the hill are two stores to die for.  The first and my 
favorite, is Zabars, which is a deli with more cheese in one place than 
could ever be thought possible.  The other, just across the street is H & H 
bagels, the worlds best!!!

Then, you are close to Central park, a simple (and cheap!) bus ride to 
almost anywhere, and a very safe neighborhood at any hour.

Tommy
