I recommend not rushing your trip. If you're in a hurry, drive your car. There's little point in cruising past places. You should stop and experience as much as you can along the way.


Active Captain can help you with marina and anchorage information. The cruising guides can help with the rest.


The length of time your trip will take depends on how far you go each day, the mileage and speed limit and locking times in the Erie Canal.
Liberty Landing is $4.50 this year during peak season, $3.00 off season.

There's so much to see and experience all along the way. That includes NYC and there it's just a matter of how much of NYC you've seen in the past and what you want to budget for this trip.
