Late entry here. I knew we couldn't make Saturday so we were out but now that it's been moved to Sunday we're going to try our best to make it. The weather looks good and we have pondered this trip for quite a while. We've done lots of boating on the Hudson but never further south than West Point.

Launch Location - Patsy's Bay Marina
Boat Name - Happy Ours
Captain - Roger Stites
Phone # 518-729-6644
VHF - Yes, mounted and handheld
Active SeaTow Member/US Boats - No

I'm here at Patsys Bay Marina

You sleeping over til tomorrow ;) or just checking it out?

Is the weather as nasty there as it is here? It rained all afternoon and we are getting 15-20mph winds.
 
its cold and nasty out here North East Of Hartford CT
 
We dropped the boat off there and headed to the hotel. We're going over to Palisades Center for dinner and entertainment.
We drove through some rain getting here but it's not raining here. It is very windy and the Hudson looks pretty choppy right now.
We are definitely glad we decided to postpone the trip, I don't think anybody would be had a good time out there today.

While I am sorry folks could not make it tomorrow, I am happy we didn't attempt this today.

I've got a head on mine, but you use it, you clean it lol
 
Apologize late response but been off this net for a day or 2.

Family priorities. Had to wave off-

Been through NY harbor & comutted the East River a number of times,..., but never on a non-sailboat.

Hoping to join in the future-

Glen.
