Joe,
Just idle speculation but it's about 400 mi one way from New York Harbor
to Kingston via the Hudson River/Erie & Oswego Canals and crossing Lake
Ontario, so add the 300 mi or so one way from the Chesapeake to NYC you
are talking over a 1,200 mi round trip, but you don't have to go past
Montreal. I've done trips on the Hudson and Canals a few times (by
powerboat), it's beautiful but kind of slow with the locks and of course
on a sailboat the 15' overhead limit requires unstepping the mast before
Albany.
So while I'd be interested in a Kingston rendezvous, I think car is my
preferred travel mode (not having the fly option....)

Given how far north it is can I put in a plug for mid-late summer of
2022 or 2023? I doubt I have the time to do the round-trip by boat*,
but we’ll definitely fly or drive.

something like 1200 miles from here by water going past Montreal??
