North from New York City

On July 16, 2012 we let go of the mooring ball at New York's city dock (79th street boat basin) and set sail on the Hudson River.
As we make our way along we're surprised at how quietly the tugs and barges can sneak up on us.
Our first day on the river was a short one.
Anchor to anchor - 22 miles - 6 hours

We anchored just north of the Tappan Zee bridge at Nyack - home to the largest mooring field on the Hudson.
