Whenever I take my 3-year-old<br />
daughter <strong>to</strong> North Cove, I can<br />
already see <strong>the</strong> twinkling in her<br />
eyes when sailboats come in<br />
and out of <strong>the</strong> marina. I am so<br />
much looking forward <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
day that she’ll be enrolling in<br />
her first sailing activity at <strong>the</strong><br />
Manhattan Sailing School and<br />
become part of yet ano<strong>the</strong>r<br />
generation of sailing and water<br />
enthusiasts at North Cove.<br />

Movies & TV Shows<br />
North Cove <strong>Marina</strong> Management has had an unprecedented string of<br />
successes in landing movie and television shoots at <strong>the</strong> marina. One of<br />
<strong>the</strong> reasons for this record run is that Commodore Fortenbaugh is<br />
personally involved. He speaks directly with location scouts and asks<br />
“What can we do <strong>to</strong> win your business” Working in conjunction with<br />
Nidia Reeder at <strong>BPCA</strong> for <strong>the</strong> past 4 years, <strong>the</strong>y have won more film<br />
shoots for <strong>the</strong> community than ever before.<br />
During <strong>the</strong> first filming events in 2006, <strong>the</strong> Commodore was careful<br />
about how <strong>the</strong> marina and community would be portrayed. He also<br />
made sure <strong>the</strong> productions would not impact <strong>the</strong> local residents in a<br />
negative way. But he soon learned <strong>the</strong> local community loved <strong>the</strong>se<br />
productions taking place in BPC. They got <strong>to</strong> see movie stars on <strong>the</strong><br />
esplanade and <strong>the</strong>ir community on television or <strong>the</strong> big screen!<br />
