I grew up in Huntington (my wife in Greenwich).  We went down there a few years 
back (in September...glorious time of  year) and visited the old haunts.   
Stayed at Indian Harbor Yacht club and Northport.   Went in and of Huntington 
and I was a wee bit draft concerned.  

I guess the nicer anchorages (Lloy's Harbor Lloyd's Neck, Easton's Neck?) I 
couldn't go near...but during the week in September everything is quiet, even 
the larger harbors I can get into.

We even had wind.

    The issue is not sailing to
        places across deep water. The issue is where you can stop and
        visit. In the area I outlined, a 7.5 foot draft would eliminate
        probably something like 75% of the nicest anchorages. Maybe
        more. I have been sailing this area for over 50 years.

        My
            boat draws 5.5 feet. I’m not too worried about navigating in
            Narragansett Bay, over to the south side of the Cape or out
            to Block Island. I will probably avoid Woods hole for a
            number of reasons. Just need to pay attention as always.
