Nyack to Catskill Demast

I walked to 125 th Street Harlem train station to Tarrytown then to Nyack.  Did groceries at Nyack Fresh Market and departed the mooring at 14:30. 

There was a lot of debris on the water due the the high waters. Some logs were over ten feet. 

Headed to Haverstraw Marina to buy 8 gallons of diesel and 1.5 gallon of gas.  I attached the dinghy on the dinghy tow. 

I continued to Hop O Nose Marina at Catskills. 

I tried to anchor, but was invited to dock at the marina.  

I removed the sails and boom and attended a Melanoma seminar and it started drizzle. I tidy up some lines.  Made supper of the salmon.  

Got up early at six and finished of preparing for demasting. It seemed that I can keep the Bimini on and have solar panels and more space inside.  

Waited all day for the crew to demast and did it at 14:30.  It took less than an hour. I moved the boat back to my dock to finish strapping the mast down.

Ile Verte to Longueil

I departed at noon for an 11 NM trip to Longueil.  It is a relatively short trip from what is effectively the east end of Montreal to Longue...
