Current-ly "Not" Underway

After a pleasant night anchored in Schodack Creek, just off the Hudson River, we set off under-power in the tidal current flowing towards the first of the upcoming 12 locks commencing at Troy.
Sadly, we experienced problems with Sea Star's transmission just 3 miles along the way.
We felt very incapacitated with our mast strapped across the deck - no sails, now no forward drive.  We carefully worked our way 2 miles back to a marina at the town of Coeymans where we tied up to the dock during a hail storm while Barry assessed the situation.
After great consideration the decision was made to haul Sea Star out and take the transmission home for over-hauling.

Early the next morning, while the tide was high, Sea Star was lifted out and we took a land based seat to view the morning mist rising off the river.  We'd been afloat for only 23 days.
