Friday, June 25 0925 Location:lat 43 28 / lon 76 30 Leaving Oswego

We left our free dock at 0645, just a short while ago and passed through the remaining last 4 locks on the Oswego Canal.  Didn't really take too long at all as they were all located within about 10 miles.

I took a photo of all the locks we went through since we started in Troy, when we left the Hudson River and traveled through the Erie and Oswego Canals.  Unfortunately, the map does not include the height and depth of the locks.  You will see, however, how busy we have been.  Whew!

We are now on Lake Ontario and the crossing is not going to be as smooth as we had hoped.  There are chops and I have closed all hatches and made sure things are secure.  It should take us about 4 hours to get to Kingston.

Bear and Barbie are a little wide eyed at the moment, but they will settle in and deal with it. Richard has his saltines just in case and I'll get mine shortly.

  1. Welcome to Canada,Bienvenue au Canada.... soon you'll be saying that!! I love your blog and your handling of all those locks, wow very impressive! The only locks I've been thru are the manual ones you get to work, nothing like these. I wish you luck and success on your Wifi quest!!
