It is a really nice trip. If you have never cruised up the Hudson
River, that alone is worth the price of admission. It's a long trip
however, especially for you, and you have to have an air draft less
than 16 feet to get under the bridge at Ft Edwards. I'm told they can
increase clearance to 17 feet by lowering the water level but that
requires advance notice.

On the other hand, do you really want the legal liability of
delivering the boat? When would they take official ownership?



St. Lawrence Sea Way? The Navigator needs 19.5 feet as configured.
Removing the arch would be a serious undertaking that I wouldn't even
consider doing myself.

Good point regarding the liability issue.
