Fuel is available right around the corner at the Haverstraw marina. It's easy to get in and out of and they have a sizable fuel dock. You go out of the channel and off to the right, you will see a big steel structure sticking out into the river. On the other side of that steel structure is the entrance to Haverstraw Marina. Gas dock is straight ahead on right.

See above. Looks like dead low is 8 AM. I recall being warned not to launch at dead low because the ramp is short.
Ive only been there once. Local guys, please confirm as I'm launching in the AM too..

I believe this was more of a concern for larger boats, and they would kick the trailer, to launch at an angle. Seems like the 2 times I have done this run, it was always low tide when launching. However, it was 5 years ago the last time Ive attended. So not sure if things have changed with the ramp.

So how how many are launching out of Newburgh?
amd what time are you going to be at the ramp?
I actually live in Kingston, so will probably come down part way and come back..not sure how far.
Just going for the ride

I am very unfortunately out. While prepping my boat for the ride yesterday afternoon, I lost my balance and fell off my trailer and seriously injured my left knee. On crutches and can’t walk. Devastatingly disappointed. Have fun all and be safe.
