Welcome to the IMRAN's Recreational Boating home page. The page is enhanced regularly, to act as a resource for boaters and pleasure cruisers on Long Island, and to share the wonderful boating experiences I have enjoyed here. Here are some photographs showing different views of a boating life on Long Island, NY, including boating trips to Manhattan, NY. Please also check the bottom of this page for more useful information and book links. Additionally, I encourage you to visit my FLYING pages, as you will see images of many of my favorite boating locations, taken from the air. Make sure to visit those pictures as they show sandbars, shallow water, marinas and channels that you visit from a different and very educational perspective. As of 2006 I have also added panoramas, ground and aerial shots placed on a real world map. The only thing more real would be for you to actually fly or cruise to all these places. Take a look!
