Marshall put in at our Boathouse in Hyde Park and took off at Peekskill. Overall, he paddled about 40 miles of the Hudson River in about 9 hours.
Marshall is using a program called MotionX-GPS to track daily progress. Unfortunately it stopped working at about Bannerman’s Castle yesterday, so we only have output from Hyde Park to there from that widget. We used a second device, a Pharos GPS chip, from Cold Spring to Peekskill. Obviously we are still trying to work out some of the electronic gadgetry, so hopefully I will be able to post a more complete map set & some photos a bit later today.
