Susan, Re: canalboat.com

Mallory has a damn gorgeous new Dutch-built pocket trawler they are chartering out of Whitesboro on Lake Champlain. Great afterdeck for pickin'. The Mid-Lakes-style narrowboats are more affordable, and run out of both Troy and Whitehall this year, I think.

You're gonna be awfully lucky to book a boat this late, I'm guessing. But if you do it in the eastern part of the state, let me know and I'll join you for a song or two or ten.

George (who didn't ask for it, but got officially designated the "Canal Balladeer" anyway. Never turn your back on your friends ) ::-.--O
