Kingston, NY On The Hudson River - Boats and Osprey

Put the boat in yesterday and took a ride down river to Kingston which borders the Roundout Creek. A ride up the creek is always interesting. Spotted a 90 yr old wooden tug. Congrats to the owner for keeping it alive. Also saw a wooden boat school. I never knew that wooden boats went to school! Perhaps the tug is one of the instructors! Also got some shots of juvenile Osprey in their nest atop a derelict crane. Appeared to be four. They seem to be doing quite well.

I'm especially drawn to old wooden boats, especially mahogany dual-cowl-speed-boats.

I'm amazed that the wood-hull tug boat is still in service after all these years. Love it!

It is quite surprising that it is in as good shape as it appears to be after all these years. Of course, a large percentage of the wood has probably been replaced at least once.
