That was more than 10 years ago....I think we had EWR as alternate indeed. And with 1800 lbs fuel remaining you have enough fuel to proceed to HPN or one of the many IFR-fields in the area, if circumstances dictate. Final reserve is around 700 lbs, there were another 1100 lbs to play with. The painful part is that you need to fly with longrange cruise settings, ending up with something like M0.69, or so. It might be quicker to go full speed to Bangor or Portsmouth, do immigration and customs there, refuel and then continue full speed to New York.
