[Rhodes22-list] Semi-sailing question - public tranportationsuggestions for Long Island

[Michael D. Weisner]

Bill,

The ferry service is from Bridgeport, CT to Port Jefferson, NY
(www.bpjferry.com) not the Port Washington.  BTW, when on the LI Sound, look
out for the Port Jeff Ferry, he has already run over a sailboat, once.

Rhode Island and NE for the summer. They anticipate being at Port Washington

Bay for the weekend. Could anyone who is familiar with the public

of public transportation from JFK to Port Washington?
