Lock 12 at Whitehall, NY is a free town dock with power and water. Sue Sea Q III is the first boat and Palmetto Moon is the second boat in this picture. Whitehall is where Lake Champlain ends and the Champlain Canal begins. It is considered the birthplace of the United States Navy. We toured the Skenesborough Museum that provided exhibits of the Revolutionary War and the War of 1812. 8/18/06
