Sandy Hook, New Jersey:
May-October
The Kathleen D sails from the Sandy Hook Bay Marina  in historic Highlands, NJ. Located dockside at the marina adjacent to Beacon on the Bay restaurant. 
Direct high speed ferry service to our marina is available from Manhattan via Sea Streak .

Historic Sandy Hook was amongst Henry Hudson's first landfall sightings in the new world. Then as today, the Sandy Hook peninsula provides a protective barrier for Sandy Hook Bay (on which we sail) from the swells of the North Atlantic. Comfort and security will ensure you a relaxing ride in sight of Sandy Hook Light, America's oldest operating lighthouse.  Standing sentinel since 1764 over the Hook, the lighthouse provides a historic exclamation point to the natural beauty and the incredible industry of the citizens who live in Americas largest urban estuary.
From Mt. Mitchell, the highest point along the eastern seaboard, to the mighty North Atlantic beyond the Hook, from the beautiful Twin Lights of Highlands, to the graceful span of the Verrazano Narrows Bridge to the Statue of Liberty and the Manhattan skyline beyond, there is no more dynamic a location to be sailing through than the Kathleen D's summer waters!

Anna Maria Island, Bradenton, Longboat / Siesta Key, St. Petersburgh, Sarasota, Tampa Bay and the Manatee River, Florida:
The Kathleen D sails from the Twin Dolphin Marina.
15 Minutes from Sarasota/Bradenton International Airport just off U.S. 41 (Tamiami Trail) and less than 30 minutes over the Skyway from downtown St. Petersburg and St. Pete Beach.

After spending most of three years searching for a diverse and comfortable sailing location in Florida we have settled on our permanent Florida base for the Kathleen D  on the Manatee River in Bradenton, Florida.
We are located in the first slip on the historic Bradenton Pier at the entrance to Mattison's Riverside Restaurant, one of the locales premier dining venues!
The beautiful Manatee River is one of the oldest settled locales in Florida. Fine homes and estates line the historic river's banks as our spacious and comfortable cat glides on the protected waters towards the rivers mouth leading onto Tampa Bay.
Historic Desoto point and the Desoto National Memorial lie at the rivers entrance and was once the staging area for Hernando de Soto's mission of discovery of the south eastern US.
The Sunshine Skyway Bridge and the dome of Tropicana Field glisten in the distance as downtown Tampa lies pushing up over the horizon beyond. Anna Maria Island, Egmont Key and Fort DeSoto Park define the boundaries of this lower half of Tampa Bay and are all an easy sail from our base.
Natural and man-made destinations abound on these beautiful light Gulf-green waters and white sugar sand beaches. Dolphin, Tarpon, Rays and seabirds proliferate here, feeding on the abundant sealife and rearing their young amongst the nurseries in the mangroves.
It took awhile for us to discover this area, but from the water it is obvious why Desoto choose this rich location to establish his base.
A mixture of natural and manmade attractions provide relaxation, fine dining, romantic sunsets, comfortable and safe sailing, lovely anchorages, beaches and exciting urban landscapes to explore.
Come see them all from a new perspective: out on the water in the heart of the "Sunshine Coast"!
