NYCkayaker Graveyard of Ships

[David Grupper]

Try Carteret Waterfront/Veterans Park in NJ. It's almost directly  
across from the graveyard and has a floating dock for put-ins. I did  
this a few weeks ago.

The one we've usually used for Sebago Canoe Club trips is the  
Conference House Park launch.

It's one of the launch sites on the NYC Watertrail, it's in a lovely  
park, and there's free parking right there. You paddle around 4 miles  
north, the yard is right before the Fresh Kills landfill. I've  
generally shot to get there at around or a bit before high water, so  
we have help both ways.

I think there was a discussion of favorite launch sites for Graveyard  
trips one time though & I seem to recall somebody having another  
favorite put-in north of the place (so you could go at low water when  
you could see more), and then there was another one in Jersey.
