If you haven't heard yet, this sounds like a fun venue to be able to race your boats in and around Long Island NY and into New York City.
The race course starts out on Long Island sound which most of the time are calm waters, then into the Atlantic Ocean, around the tip of NYC, and finish off on Long Island Sound

• ride around statue of Liberty
• enjoy the nice vineyards on Long Island
• visit Hustler Powerboats, Predator, Superboat
• enjoy the bars on Nautical Mile on Long Island
• visit West Point
• dock your boat at Block Island for a day of Fun
• take the short cut into Cape Cod Canal and ride your boat into Cape Cod and visit Boston, MA
• part of the race course takes you under The Verazano Narrows Bridge

current race course:

Lots of Apaches around this area! These open water races are where the legendary Apaches were said to have shined. We've heard over and over for years these are the best open water boats made, but they just aren't suited for today's bay/river races... Well here's the chance to let them shine again! I'm looking forward to seeing the tribe come out in full force to school todays boats on open water racing!
