[Rhodes22-list] Mooring or slip info

[Richard Arking]

Gateway Marina is on Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn (Flatbush Ave south of the
Belt Parkway, opposite Floyd Bennett Field). Not cheap but they do have
relatively new and well maintained floating docks- about 300 + slips. They
don't allow self-launching from their ramp; you have to hire their travel
lift. Current fees should be on their web site.
Richard Arking, San Juan 21- bought last year from Stan, plan to trade it
back to Stan at the Annapolis Boat Show and shake hands for an R-22.
