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.

The Sandy Hook patrol boat, 87-foot Coast Guard Cutter Bonito, was cruising New York’s waterways over a rainy Memorial Day weekend. On Saturday, she traveled up the East River as far as Hunts Point before coming back and cruising up the North River as far as the Upper West Side. Dawn on Memorial Day finds Bonito tucked in at her base at Fort Hancock on Sandy Hook after spending Sunday close to home.
