On our way to Lake Oneida we passed the replica 77-foot canal schooner “Lois McClure.” It will travel 1,000 miles this summer to visit 25 historic ports-of-call. This boat is an example of an 1862 canal schooner that carried goods throughout the north east waterways.

At many places the waterway is very narrow.

Kids’ enjoying summer along the Erie Canal.

We stayed at a marina named Mariners Landing on the East side of Lake Oneida. It was very classy; check out what they use in the men’s head to keep it smelling fresh.

Is 25 cents for a hot shower too high?

Tuesday night is Bike night at Sylvan Beach on Lake Oneida. There were many hot bikes in town that night, it’s a good time to see lot’s of bikes and be seen as well. It was heartwarming to see a dad spending quality time with his daughters.

We finally reach Ess-Kay boat yard; tomorrow they will checkout our props and shafts. More on that sad story another day.
