Another option in the NYC Evacuation Plan is to load 6000 persons on each ferry and then they run to Albany, NY via the Hudson River.

They are to then return to NYC and pick up another load for another run.

Problem: Unless some major changes have been made, there isn't any facilities in Albany, NY to care for NYC's population. Albany's big advantage, as a destination may be limited but there are many roads out of Albany to the rest of the country.
