Oyster Bay to Greenport Best Strategy

I’m looking to take some friends east and was wondering if anyone has a Best Strategy for getting from Oyster Bay to Greenport (without stopping at port Jeff and without sailing at night or against current) Thanks!

Re: Oyster Bay to Greenport Best Strategy

If you mean non-stop during daylight hours that's a tough ask. Your overall plan must include timing Plum Gut at slack turning to flood. That means for the six hours before reaching the Gut you'll also have favourable currents. Check your favourite tide/ current charts. I still use Eldridge.

Of course all goes out the window if wind and weather isn't on your side the whole trip.

Once you pass Mattituck inlet you're committed to rounding the Gut so check your numbers then.
