Sailing our Catamaran 10 Knots Toward a Bridge that WON'T OPEN! E71

In this episode, we splash our boat after a bottom job and having our windows re-bedded. We make our way west from Long Island sound and sail deep into Long Island thru Mattituck Creek. We stop in Port Jefferson to say good-bye to our AB dinghy and welcome our new Highfield 360 with the Yamaha f25hp engine. It's a beautiful thing. The excitement comes as we approach the Roosevelt Island Bridge on the east side of the East River. The UN was in session, so we were prohibited from sailing down the west side, the side with no bridge. We were instructed to call on the radio 30 minutes before we got there. But no one was answering. Radio call after radio call, phone call after phone call! The 5.5 knot current is pushing us at along at record speed toward a bridge that wasn't opening! Watch to find out what happens. Along the way, Adrienne gets COVID, our friend Glen pays us a visit, and we sail under all the bridges from Hell's Gate to Brooklyn as we begin making our way to Annapolis. Thanks for watching and enjoy our featured music from Eddie 9Volt.
