Very nice boat! You must post more pictures when you can!

Tired of going slow

Congratulations. That should expand your horizons a bit.

Which bridge is that? Thought I had a scanned pic of my 32 crossing the bridge across the Delaware Dec 99. Can't find it

at first, it looked like the George Washington bridge in N.Y., but it's only got three lanes??

I'm thinking it's the Throg's Neck. Towers are too tall for the Whitestone.

(For those not from the area, the Throg's Neck and Whitestone cross the north end of the East River between Long Island (Queens) and the Bronx)

I'm voting on the Verazano Narrows bridge. Or as we in New Jersey call it " The Very Narrow Bridge"

You could be right - in fact my first thought was the Verazano - but I don't think I've crossed it more than twice and I thought it was a bit wider.

Where's Matt to let us know for sure?

This was too fun to watch the guessing game !!!

Doug Sea and Capt Ron had it right, it is the Verrazano....
Then stuck in traffic going through Brooklyn, I had to move it before sping or I would have just drove it out....

I knew I had seen that bridge before. (above and below). Those are great photos of the boat going through Brooklyn! I notice by the Brooklyn photos that the boat was originally from Leonardo, NJ. I fish those waters regularly as Leonardo is one mile from my home port. I thought I'd seen every Albin in the area, but don't remember seeing that boat. Where was the owner hiding it?

I know from watching the History Channel that the big problem with the Verazzano is that it's too narrow and doesn't accomodate mass transit. I guess New Jersey doesn't want to let the poor people in.
