The Marina at Chelsea Piers is the perfect starting point for everything New York City has to offer. Set out on the Hudson River and enjoy the historic sites of New York Harbor, including the spectacular urban skyline of Manhattan, the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island, and the Brooklyn Bridge. Day adventures may include northern stretches of the Hudson River, with historic estates and lighthouses, plus southern points of interest in New Jersey and Long Island.
If you're planning your visit around site-seeing in Manhattan, Chelsea Piers is located in the heart of the vibrant West Chelsea / Meatpacking District, with easy access to all restaurants, theaters and entertainment attractions.
You’ll love the porches and deck that overlook the river when you book this New York cabin on Vrbo. There’s a state boat launch that’s three miles away, so bring your boat along. The cabin offers Wi-Fi, a satellite TV, an outdoor shower, and a kitchen. However, guests should bring their own linens, towels, and pillows. Dogs are allowed for a fee and as long as guests follow a list of pet rules. Fun things to do in this area include the snowmobile trail, shops and restaurants in Harrisville, and hikes to the nearby waterfall. more

If you’re looking to experience a different side of New York with a scene that’s more nature than city, renting a cabin is a great way to go. There are lots of cozy cabins in rural areas of the state and near small towns that are fun to explore.
In every marina we looked at, they didn’t have pumpout services for heads in the winter (as in, pumps to clear your toilet tanks). Your alternatives for this include: don't use your head at all, or only do #1 and open it straight into the river. Use marina bathrooms for everything else. You can also get a composting head (toilet), which renders this a nonissue. Note that especially in winter, you shouldn't plan on showering on your boat because of the moisture, so you'll be in those bathrooms regularly. Also, most FT boaters keep pee-only heads anyway, because it dramatically reduces smells on your boat. There's the gross explainer on that.
In summer, water is a no-brainer, just fill up your tank every so often from a hose right at your slip. In the winter, water is annoying but doable. You'll get an extra long hose, or some docks link their hoses together and they fill directly from pumps on land. This is annoying. Sometimes people will leave water in the hose and it'll freeze and you have to do ridiculous things to unfreeze it (like taking 200 feet of hose into the shower to melt it, true story) but totally doable. If you have large water tanks it's a non-issue (we don't, and it was still only an every-two-week affair for us.)
No marina in the NYC area will say they accept liveaboards. Look instead for marinas with "wet winter storage" or in-water storage, and for marinas who accept "frequent stayaboards". more
This can be an inconvenience at times -- if they have to fix the water or facilities they work under the assumption every tenant doesn't live there full time, even if they know they do, so you have to make alternative plans. This wasn’t an issue for us but it's different at every marina. here
Despite the fact that we’re now cruising full-time, I probably get 5-6 emails a week from people who want to learn more about living on a boat, especially in New York City. Since being covered in Forbes, I've gotten a boatload (pun intended) of people asking the same questions, so I figured a blog post was in order!
Remember that when you live on a boat you aren't connected to a water or sewage system.
