Thurs. Aug. 9, 2018 at Waterford, NY town dock.
Thus begins another boating adventure, this time aboard Nano with Captain Paul Goss and our rowdy sailing buddies (RSBs).
Nano is a Ranger 27 Mini trawler that is a successor to Paul and Marj’s previously owned Pico, a 25' Ranger of the same design.
Since Sheri and I sold Adventure I have logged over 5,000 nautical miles sailing with Paul.
Although Nano has already logged 500 miles getting to this point from her home port at Portland Maine, this blog appropriately starts here, at this colonial fording place where the Mohawk river meets the Hudson. It is here, too, that both the Erie and Champlain canals begin their respective routes to the great lakes of the west and the Saint Lawrence river to the north. These are the routes we will follow on this northern loop adventure.
