This past weekend we had great weather that lined up perfectly with the Ravena Coeymans Yacht Club chicken bake. As usual the folks at this working yacht club put up a great time that included 2 dinners, two breakfasts, lunch and plenty of beer.

There was a horse shoe contest, a fishing contest for the kids, and DJ's both nights. Everyone left with smiles.

On the way up aboard the Ray Jean Too, while leaving the creek we ran into the Dutch Flotila working its way up to Albany. They were fine examples of wooden boats brought over for the occassion.

Since they travel quite slowly we also had the opportunity to review them on the river as they had made their way up beyond Saugerties by Sunday morning.
