Water, Water, Everywhere

Just head over the West Side to the Hudson River at Battery Park City on a Summer's weekend and what do you see?

There's a water taxi zooming by at full throttle, a commuter ferry completing another round trip to Jersey City, and here's a couple of jet skis roaring past a few lazy kayaks, there's the Staten Island Ferry, the tourist boats loading up for trips to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, the jaw dropping luxury craft, sailboats and motor yachts, heading out of Manhattan Marina, a floating restaurant, a party cruise, and then to top it all off the Queen Mary 2 quietly glides by and heads to the open sea.
