Cruising the Hudson River

Jim, Dave and I took our Sea Doos down the Hudson River from Catskill to Kingston yesterday. What a gorgeous and calm day, with very little current.

It didn't take us long to get to the lighthouse entrance at Kingston's Rondout Creek going 35 mph!

 

The shipyard was much busier than in previous years.

End of the line. There used to be a lock here in days gone by for boats transporting coal.

 

"Be Aware of Falling Objects" is a sign on the new bridge that is replacing the old one over the west end of the creek. Gotta love Dave's special hat!

Now it's time to load up the Sea Doo to head to the Thousand Islands'  to watch the annual Poker Run this weekend. Lots of big fast (and loud!) boats. Check back for what I'm sure will be some awesome photos.
