A firsthand account of more than 1,000 miles of waterways within and around the Empire State, including the Hudson River, Chambly Canal, and the Richelieu River. The author reveals that while boaters enjoy cruising on Lake Champlain, many are unaware of the many sunken ships that comprise its "underwater historic preserves". From The Publisher: A firsthand account of more than 1,000 miles of waterways within and around the Empire State, this guide is a lifesaver. While many New York boaters have enjoyed cruising the beautiful waters of Lake Champlain, not everyone will know about its "Underwater Historic Preserves." These sunken ships provide an excellent diversion for divers. Skipper Tips also prove invaluable, indicating which NOAA charts to use and where flotsam may be prevalent. This extremely thorough guide covers everything from popular waterways (including Lake Champlain, the Hudson River, and the Erie Canal) to less-traveled waters (which include Chambly Canal, St. Ours Lock, and the Richelieu River). Chris W. Brown III has owned thirty-seven boats in more than thirty-five years. His most recent adventure was a five-month-long, 3,300-mile cruise from Miami to the Great Lakes. |
