Traveling is in my blood, and so is water. It's true I chose horses over sailing with my mother, but I do like messing about in boats.
Since the 1960s, excursion boating on the Hudson has made a comeback, as is evidenced by the many restorations and creations photographed around the time of the 500th Anniversary of the River's discovery by Europeans.

| New York Waterways has taken over the Hudson ferry crossings. |

| Ersatz paddle wheeler also docked at Newburgh.
Lac Leman's Belle Epoque fleet of 8 restored boats puts the U.S. to shame.
