That's Russell Smith, Bill Armitage,
and Cameron Taylor from the John Gardner TSCA in the
Floating The Apple Community Boat House when they
first arrived.

This picture shows just one of the creative
things Floating The Apple has developed over the years.
Since storage space was at a premium they used containers
(like those used on trucks or train cars) to store
their many boats. **
|
Another innovative creation
that the FTA came up with are cradles like you see here.
The cradles comes apart so they can be transported in
a car or truck |
|
Here you can see that they can lower
the boats onto the cradles and easily move the boats
along the pier. |

A big part of the day was the race heats. Floating
the Apple provided many of the boats and rowers came
from all over the Northeast. The boats raced from Pier
40 where the FTA clubhouse is located to another pier
on the Hudson much further South. Then they'd turn around
and race back. Can't tell which people are racing in
these pictures
