Croton-on-Hudson to Kingston, NY

The Hudson River is spectacularly beautiful and if you ever get a chance to see it on a boat, do so.

This is our fifth time sailing under the Bear Mountain Bridge into the Hudson River highlands and it never disappoints.



 

Passing the Esopus Meadows light, now a familiar sight, we know we are only a short distance from Kingston, NY and our stop for the night.

We arrived here at Rondout Yacht Basin in Kingston, where we met up with a merry group of "Loopers", or people who are doing the Great Loop.  Some have been living and cruising on their boats for as long as a year and a half, while some take breaks and go home now and then. 

We'll stay here for at least one more day while we catch up on the housekeeping chores.
