its an awsome place to anchor. croton gets real nasty some days but in bowline its so portected its like glass all day. the problem is getting in there. theres a big opening to get in but there is a big rock wall that you can see at low tide but at high tide you dont know its there. ive watched many people hit it. there is a real small channel to get in and its all deep water inside. if anyone wants to go in let me know. im there alot.

launch usually up in lansingburgh/north troy----near albany but maybe never again. last weekend went to see some friends who live riverside with a dock just north of waterford on the canal---found out the hard way that some 9-10 foot piece of concrete or who-knows-what has fallen into the middle of the canal----putted out between the buoys with the wife and kids and started to accelerate and slammed my skeg, prop, and broke the coupler all at once-----not a real big fan of the hudson right now---anyhow anyone up north here watch out about a half mile or so past the waterford bridge in the canal---friggin jaws is there waitin to chomp someone else----i know my buddy tried to contact the sheriffs or whoever marks and monitors those things but hey---this is ny----they will get to it when someone sinks and it is a real dilemma----for now, im a lake guy all the way------enjoy the weekend all
