After the rain there was a lot of mud and log debris in the river. The S turn at West Point was especially filled with stuff floating down stream including a partially submerged blue 50 gallon drum!! After a 52.8 mile run up the Hudson, we docked at the Kingston NY Maritime museum which is up a creek that starts with a beautiful lighthouse.
The staff opened the Hudson Maritime Museum for us even though it was closed to the public that day and a volunteer walked us through each exhibit. Bonus, the boaters lounge and bathhouse was Inside a wooden boat school! If that’s not enough, we are docked right next to an old McAllister steam tug !!! The town is small and historic, we stayed a second day.
On the way north the next day we realized that the train tracks were now working again after the storm damage. We arrived at Shady Harbor and watched the repair work on their docks from the storm.
