Museum canal boat is back in the water

CUDDEBACKVILLE, NY — Neversink Kate, the Neversink Valley Area Museum’s re-creation of a 19th century canal boat, is back in the water and ready to board passengers. The canal has been repaired after the damage caused by April’s devastating floods and the boat has just been re-launched.

The boat will take visitors on 30-minute narrated boat rides along the historic Delaware & Hudson Canal every Saturday and Sunday from October 1 through 30 from 12:00 to 4:00 p.m. on the hour. Those who come before 12:00 noon on October 16 can enjoy the museum’s apple pancake breakfast as well. Tickets are $5 per person. Boat capacity is 12 adults, so if you have a large group, reservations are preferred.

The boat docks just past the D & H Canal Park Visitor’s Center at 58 Hoag Road, off Route 209. For more information call 845/754-8870 for more information.
