Don't miss Seneca Falls on the north end of Cayuga Lake. Great dockage in the historic district right in town.

When we went through, I positioned a boat pole taped to the bow pulpit that measure 15'2" from the tip to the water as check should the water level have raised from rain. After dropping all we measure "approximately" 14' 8"ish but were not positive of the exact measurement and pole helped comfort us. If it made it, I knew we could. Looked tacky but worked. The Western Erie Canal is great cruising offering side trips into the finger lakes and Cities such as Syracuse, Rochester, Buffalo, Watkins Glen and Ithaca. as well as the myriad of charming villages and towns sprinkled along its length every 10-12 miles. Cruise an hour or so, pull up to the town wall, plug in to the free power and enjoy the town. Such simple but thoroughly enjoyable cruising. Oh, and also inexpensive...$75 for a season long lock pass and almost all stops offer free power and water, washrooms with showers, pump outs, and some with free washer and dryers! Talk about welcoming the boaters, they know how to do it. Enjoy!

I would appreciate hearing from any other Manatee owners who have been through here re just how much room they had above their pilot house. I am wondering if I should remove the searchlight which extends about another 8" above the roof.
