There is a very nice spot, on the eastern side of Stonedam Island. Coming in from Governors Island, when you see the public dock, on your left, come just inside the black marker, southeast of the dock and anchor. You should be fine there.
Enjoy!
Also, Don Hughes would know a good place, as he is a well respected and long time sailor here!
