My favorite lighthouse… and lower Hudson today

The Little Red Lighthouse on the east side of the George Washington Bridge today.

The first book I ever remember reading!

Below is the newest major bridge to cross the Hudson River.

“New” Tappan Zee Bridge

Reportedly “The only 360 degree protected anchorage on the Hudson River.” Arguable though, as there are a number of “creeks” one can anchor in.

This particular anchorage is just south of the Safe Harbor – Haverstraw Marina, west side of the river. We will stay here again!

Our bathymetry coming in today with 1ft above MLLW. (Add 2 ft for transducer offset).
Looking out to the Hudson from the inside.

Water is warm enough for a swim!

We’ve been paying for dockage for the past 10 nights. So, it was time to exercise the anchor again!

Shelly’s homemade “ZA” was the best tonight!
