if anybody wants to haul their rig to the city, the east river looks buttery all summer long. the canals alongside roosevelt island are protected and begging to be ripped up. any takers? would make for epic pictures.....

Long Island, I cant believe there are so few people from NY on WW.I went to school on the east river last year and know what you mean Charles, it needs to be ripped up. The east river is disgusting though gross water all sorts of stuff in there.

I used to ride in NY, south shore of Long Island. Live in FL now for 4 years. Mainly just writing here to mention that last I knew the Mastercraft dealer in Port Jefferson is the worst (Eric?). His outfit is a discredit to the Mastercraft name.

The dealer in Port Jefferson is Island Watersports. Some guys from Long Island came to the NJ Wakefest last year. They called themselves The D.I.C. Crew out of Huntington Station. Wow. Dave Williams is actually a north eastern tough guy like us. Now I see where Wakeworld gets its edge! Wakeboard in the East River?? The East River currents are wicked; especially where it gets narrow way up by Yankee Stadium and around all the bridges. A friend of mine from Astoria claimed he once saw a torso floating in the East River. I have to believe the canals around Roosevelt Island are full of all kinds of really evil debris and contaminants. On a related note, I'll be all around Manhattan this weekend with some very special out-of-town guests. Maybe I'll take them up the Harlem River Drive to check-out some of that East River butter!

Swimming in the East River was the most disgusting thing I have ever experienced in my life.
