Troy/Waterford to Catskill, NY

Catskill, NY

We are in Catskill, NY at the Riverview Marina where we had the mast put back into it's place yesturday, October 8, a great day!  Odyssey sure is pretty now.  For those interested, the price was 125$.  The shower here is very clean, two in a row...  So far with our antenna for internet we have been pretty lucky, even on moorings.  We met a couple with their kids who were not able to connect anywhere, they didn't have a long range antenna.

We spent the night, Oct. 7 at Castleton Marina on a mooring, 5$ for the mooring and 5$ for showers.  Castleton Marina is the first place since Chambly that the showers were clean.  And surprise, a beer was 1$.

 Entering the Troy Federal lock, our last one!  We have done 13 locks since Whitehall!

Exiting the Troy Federal lock

We spent 2 nights at the Waterford City dock, free services and internet.  I don't recommend the washroom though!  Sorry Waterford!  It raiined so much that the river raised two feet in 24 hours and once again, they closed the Erie Canal and Champlain Canal.  I must say, we have not had much luck with the weather.  We left Waterford in the rain, but once we got to the Troy Federal lock, it was sunny for the first time in days.
