Day 13 - JUN 28th - Saturday
Today we continued up the Hudson and through our first Lock called the Troy Federal Lock. We had set the fenders and lines ready for a starboard side tie (which is the Caps preferred side while bringing Persistence into dock)... but of course, we had to change everything for a portside tie. As we entered the lock there was some discussion how to proceed and after all the prep, we ended up with one single center tie-up. We did okay.
It was just 2.3 miles to the junction of the Mohawk and Hudson Rivers at Waterford, NY and it was along the concrete wall, on the south side, that we tied up for the night.
