Observations on the Hudson River as it passes through New York City. The section of the Hudson which passes through New York is historically known as the North River, called this by the Dutch to distinguish it from the Delaware River, which they knew as the South River. This stretch of the Hudson is still often referred to as the North River by local mariners today. All photos copyright Daniel Katzive unless otherwise attributed.

Wednesday May 8–hot wind and cold water

Buchanan12 headed back to Clinton Point with empty hoppers just before a thunderstorm moved through in the morning.
Erin Elizabeth has been moving scrap recently and brought three hoppers full down from Coeymans down to the Sims metal dock in Jersey City.
Erin passed Sapphire Coast on one.
Sapphire was heading back to Ravenna with a light cement barge.
A small powerboat ran aground in the Spuyten Duyvil Creek, bringing a Coast Guard 45’ response boat all the way up from the harbor.
One of Harbor Charlie’s 35’ boats later returned from the area.
A Metro North “maxibomb” rounded the curve at Spuyten Duyvil and headed for Westchester.
