Before you travel, always confirm the details that matter with the New York State Canal Corporation, official Notices to Mariners, current nautical charts, and the businesses themselves. You are responsible for your own safety and navigation decisions. We are not liable for any loss, injury, or damage arising from reliance on information found here.
