the boat is eclectic and funky. it is in the flight path from JFK- you can see the tower from the helm of the boat for those who like to know that. the boatyard is also fun and the people very nice. there was a leak in the roof which was fixed the night before I left. I would suggest getting a curtain for the front windows as the morning light is blinding. I loved the turtle who visited each day and the neighbours were very friendly . its close to the beach. they did ask me to take in the pots and things from the boat , which was ok but some people might be put off by being asked to do that. note that the toilet and shower are public- for the marina- its in the description but just really know that if that matters to you and sometimes in the morning when I went to shower , it was being cleaned so have to work around that. the boat felt like someones home with lots of charms from places around the world. I defiantly suggest people bring their own drinking water. it was a fun experience overall.
