Hudson River Locks – Day 5

Today was a fun day as we saw some beautiful parts of the river, entered into the Hudson River Locks, hooked up with our guests from Taylor Made, as well as having Bruno 4 and Bruno 5 joining us. We are still just amazed that we are experiencing this wonderful trip. Thanks for all your comments!

Hudson River Locks – Day 5 — 4 Comments

  1. I haven’t been able to check the blog for 2 days so it was fun to see what you have been doing. The area is so beautiful and you look so happy on this great adventure of yours. It was so nice to see our friends from Taylor Made were there with you and that Bruno and Bruno had arrived. Love you guys – Cayr

    • Thanks Cayr. Taylor Made fenders have worked terrifically so far. And having the fender racks on the bow keeps the large fenders stowed and out of the way when they are not being used with the fender boards.

      There are so many wonderful things to see and take pictures of around every bend in the river/canal that we just keep snapping pictures!

      Keep getting better. You are in our prayers that you will lick this ugly thing! Your attitude has been inspiring to many, many. Thanks for who you are.

      iboats’ Captain,

      Bruno

  2. So glad my boys made it there safe! Have fun and take lots of pictures 😉 I will check out your adventures daily so I can feel like Im right there with you!
    Lots of love to you and happy boating,

    Heidi, Lexi, Ashley

    • Thanks Heidi. Your son did awesome today at piloting the boat along the river/Erie Canal. He’s a natural…a real chip off the old block, and the older block, and the older block, and the older block; Bruno number I through IV, all avid boaters!
