If you are interest in using the NYS Canal System, you might start here (they also maintain a booth at major boat shows):

Charts are available for downloading to Opencpn from the NOAA site via the chart command.

I don’t know the exact dates, but the canal depth is low in the winter and re-filled again in the spring.

 

I would google next spring to see when they “re-open” it.

Do I have to google the controlling depth of the Erie canal?  Step up, New Yorkers.  What's up there?

For tourism, portions of it may be great.  For commercial shipping between New York City and Buffalo, I believe it’s a thing of the past.  Portions can still be seen along I 86 between Erie and Corning.  I suspect it’s too shallow for my boat.

 

I’ll look into it.  Good idea.

Who ever told you the Erie Canal was defunct ?  Alive and well and lots of loupers headed around the system.....well worth the trip at least once.
