Re: Florida Taxes for 48 Day Stay

I thought it was 90 days too. The only reason I am asking is because we are headed back up north and will need a sticker from somewhere. Florida has cheap registration fees but I just don't want to...

Re: East River Closure for UN Meeting 2013

We just anchored off Rat Island and are hopefully headed through tomorrow. We would like to anchor off Ellis Island or the Statue of Liberty tomorrow night. Anyone have any suggestions?

Re: East River Closure for UN Meeting 2013

Thanks! I saw these from previous years. It is exactly the $50K fine I am trying to avoid! But I am too pretty for prison; maybe that is what I should be worried about.

Re: East River Closure for UN Meeting 2013

Thanks! I thought that bridge was a lift bridge that had 90 ft clearance up? I really don't want to bother with it if I can avoid it.

Re: Tankless Propane Water Heater?

For applications like this, how do you get your house water pressure up? Does a system like this come with a booster pump or do you use a bladder pressure tank?
