Thanks for your interest, there are two ramps at the marina which we start at. One (preferred) is pretty decent. Wide but gets murky near low tide. We usually let the larger boats go in as close to high tide as possible with the same for the way out. We generally all use thermal and help each other to make it a quick process. As for the long island thing I'm sure someone from the area will chime in. Hope to see you there.
I also just checked the tides for 10/7/12 and the closest location I could find on my iPhone app was Haverstraw, Hudson River.... I am assuming that is close enough..... this shows High Tide at 4:07 am...... what time would everyone be launching ?

Looking forward to this event as I do every year !
When Mahopac Marine did this years ago, there was a nice ramp on the East Side of the Hudson north of the Power Plant. Perhaps Tom or someone can chime in for directions for that ramp for those concerned about low tide... ?
Here is a photo of the lunch stop at the Steel House:

looking very good for me to make this run......keeping my fingers crossed.....But please anyone from L.I. who is planning on trailering to this run let me know...... It would really help to follow some one up (Saturday Night or Sunday early morning) who knows the legal routes......or worst case some one who can give me good directions to the marina. Thanks..........
