Rhode Island Run
“Darling, I don’t know why I go to extremes” – Billy Joel Rhode Island run (6/22/13, 7:41:51AM) at EveryTrail EveryTrail – Just like my snowmobile, I love to ride my jetski, – from sun up to sun down. I never get enough, and when people ride with me they sometimes get caught in the crossfire. […]
Planning and enjoying extended PWC Rides
When I was asked about how I plan for a long jetski ride (or any ride for that matter) I immediately thought of something my very good friend, Sam, used to say to me; “Man Plans and God Laughs.” I think that the best planning you can do for a trip is to plan for […]
Personal Water Craft Trip around Long Island by Jetski PWC
Saturday July 23. Forecast was looking good for our trip around LI. We met at Frank and Dicks in Babylon and were off by 7:30. We had 9 skis – Barry, Jason, Geoff, Yamadude Joe, Sarah, Nizam, George, Howie and Will. Unfortunately one guy had an engine light come on before we left so he […]
Block Island Jetski Trip by Personal Water Craft PWC
4am, Saturday morning, June 23…raining. Wasn’t sure if anybody else was still going to show up at Orient Point for a planned trip to Block but my experience with the weather is that unless it is absolutely miserable (everyone’s definition is different) pay it no mind. I was surprised to see all 6 skis […]
Upper Hudson River
August 22 I haven’t done the upper Hudson River in many years so today I decided to trailer to Cold Spring and begin my trip there to the Federal Locks in Troy rather then do the LI Sound and Lower Hudson again and run out of time. It’s about a 2 hour car ride from […]
Connecticut River – “It’s Part of the Adventure…”
Saturday, August 20 I do a lot of trips solo so when a trip is planned with other people I keep in mind that I have to be flexible and just take the day as it comes. The trips wind up being a lot of fun and interesting, as this trip was to become. Awhile […]
Hudson River Revisited – The Anniversary Week Finale
Sunday, July 24 All week my wife and I were talking about the Hudson trip as she had never done it on a PWC. As we cruised around all week I was prepping her that it might not be as calm as she liked, but she was excited and enthusiastic to do it and I […]
How one day turned into a week long trip…Westhampton, Connecticut River, Finger Lakes, Housatonic River, Hudson River
Saturday morning, July 16 The plan is to start a week long 25th wedding anniversary vacation with my wife. The plan is to ride the ski out east all day, return to boat, sleep, then head to drop my daughter at Coast Guard Camp, then boat all week…here’s what happened instead. We trailered the ski […]
Boating to Montauk, Martha’s Vineyard, Block Island, Sag Harbor
This is mainly a reference to times from port to port. I was running my 37 Searay Sundancer at an average speed of 23mph. This can help when planning a trip to one of these ports as you can figure what you run and then do the math. I know that on my PWC I […]
