The Hudson has some really wide spots. In a blow it would get interesting. We're lucky to have had nothing but settled weather.
It's mandatory while cruising past West Point to take a picture. As an Air Force guy I object to the tradition but, nevertheless, complied. The picture came out poorly. So, for your viewing pleasure, here's a picture from the Academy's web site. If it had been a sunny day I'm sure my picture would have been better ;-)
As expected marina rates are climbing. In the last three days we paid $1.50/ft, $2.00/ft, and tonight $2.65/ft. Who needs a nav chart, we must be getting closer to NYC.
Today we picked up the pace as we're running short of money, Did I mention how expensive the marinas are getting? It was 39 miles between Poughkeepsie and Half Moon Bay, NY. We're 798 miles into 2019 and 9034 miles from Naples. DBH
