I left customs saturday july 24th at 2:30 pm. Showed up at whitehall at 5:30pm cruising between 35 and 40 mph... Slept at white hall.
sunday left at 10:15 to get in the first lock, came in at waterford dock at 6 pm and slept there.free dock by the way!
Monday: one last lock at 11 am and went to liberty landing marina at 5 pm. stayed there for 2 nights, visited NY with the kids. Nice view of NY directly from the marina. By the way, 2$ per foot on lake champlain for a dock is cheap!
left wednesday noon for Sea bright NJ just after sandy hook. 1:30 travel time from NY to sea bright. stayed there one night, enjoyed the beach.
Left NJ thursday 11 am to go back home, slept at the round out yacht bassin in kingston NY, nice place for kids by the way !
Left this place friday morning and went towards Albany where I was waiting for my driver to pick me up with the trailer cause I did not feel like doing the locks one more time...
if ever anyone needs more info ! let me know!
