They've always been on time and clean. It's a beautiful trip across Long Island Sound at one of its widest points. The entrance to Port Jefferson is lovely with huge sand cliffs to the left and a beautiful wide open harbor to the right.

Father-in-law had a lovely vintage yacht, then followed an Egg Harbor with Bimini top. We'd go over to PJ every nice weekend. Mainly eat meals onboard. Only docking and going into town a couple times. It was a phenomenal experience.
One summer, in-laws took another couple over to L.I. and docked along the coast all the way to R.I. then across back to CT. Essex. We drove over at the beginning and met them at each docking for our floating motel! 😁
