Heave Away, Haul Away to (Little) Sri Lanka!  The currents work for our biennial row to visit (and feast in!) Little Sri Lanka on Staten Island, home to the largest Sri Lankan population in the US.  We will use the skills we had built up on previous rows to maintain way for 4 hours.  We drop anchor in the little inlet off Canal St, climb ashore, walk to http://lakruwana.com for their all day all-you-can-eat $15 buffet, a  couple of blocks away.  We return to Alcyon at 3:00, catch the returning flood waters to Greenpoint by about 7pm

Rowers, please email me before registering.
