Obviously the best bet is to hijack a Coast Guard Cutter. Zombie sharks will only break their teeth against the metal hull, it's small enough for a rag-tag team of survivors to crew but big enough to have a helipad (for scouting and rescuing survivors), good radio equipment, additional bunkspace for what survivors you do find, and most importantly it's armed. The Cutter finds survivors, takes them to some Caribbean or Pacific island, sets up a base camp with farms, and then conducts raids into zombie territory to steal supplies and search for more survivors. It then takes those survivors back to the secret human island lair, rinse, and repeat.
The tricky part will be fuel, but that's what off-shore drilling platforms are for. Assuming they're not zombified you can always go there for fuel, and there are a couple of navy bases on small islands off the mainland, so you can raid/meet up with allied forces there. Eventually as the group gets bigger you can look into finding and appropriating other boats, perhaps even start looking into contacting any nuclear submarines that were underwater at the time of zombification.
Addenda:
Assuming there's still the north polar ice cap at time of zombification, how cool would it be to steal an ice breaker, run it along the coast very slowly to attract zombies and then just keep going north. You get to the ice sheet, start going into it, have the zombies follow you out on the ice until they finally freeze solid or get stuck on the ice.
Thinking of it, the safest place (once you figure out the whole food/energy situation during the 6 months of night) would be the Amundsen-Scott South Pole Station. Any zombies would freeze well before they got there.
