Q: I would like to sailing with a bunch of friends of mine near New York city, but I don't want to sail in the city, I would like to go sailing in Long Island Sound and would like to take a train to get there (No car). I would like to be able to take the MetroNorth or the LIRR and get off the station and walk to the sail boat rental place. Thanks for the help in advance.
A: Take the LIRR Port Washington branch to Port Washington. It's right on the water. http://www.portsailing.com/
