Long day of transit. Started out cold and ended up nice. Left St Johnsville and motored to Schenectady Yacht Club. This is a nice place. Better than the last 2, but it’s all relative. Still not as nice as the places we stayed in the western part of the canal, but much better than the last 2 nights. The only restaurants or bars are more than 4 miles away so we ordered a pizza to be delivered.<\/p>\n

Did 8 locks today. It has been rough with the wind affecting the position of the boat. Not as windy today, but still a challenge for 2 people and a very heavy boat. Tomorrow will be our last day in the canal and we will make it to Catskill to put the mast back up at Riverview Marina.<\/p>\n

From there it looks like a stop in Newburgh and then overnight to Cape May NJ. So far the weather looks perfect for the run around NJ. Let’s hope it holds.<\/p>\n

Today’s pictures….<\/p>\n

Leaving another lock.

Very nice view. This part of the canal is in the Mohawk River and is the most picturesque so far.

Beautiful sunrise with sparse fog on the water. Really pretty.

So some people say that cruising is working on your boat in exotic locations. Thus far into our trip the heat\/air conditioning, bilge pump, hand held marine radio all went kaput. We have backup functionality for those but they are going to need to be repaired<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
