The Seneca Chief is set to dock at the Cornwall Yacht Club in Cornwall-on-Hudson on Thursday, October 23, 2025.

“When the Seneca Chief reaches a port, the public can experience free, family-friendly activities that bring canal history to life. While docked, the vessel becomes a floating museum that allows you to step aboard to explore recreated cabins, view historical artifacts, and engage with interactive exhibits that illuminate the canal’s cultural, economic, and environmental significance - including the contributions of Indigenous communities. On shore, the Buffalo Maritime Center will host special events, educational programs, and hands-on wooden boatbuilding activities for all ages.”

The Buffalo Maritime Center’s Erie Canal Boat Seneca Chief departed Buffalo, NY on September 24^th, embarking on a statewide Bicentennial Voyage that invites the public to commemorate the Erie Canal’s enduring legacy.

In late 2024, the Cornwall Yacht Club generously donated a plaque to the Village of Cornwall-on-Hudson highlighting the Hudson River wreck of the Armistead — a World War I–era ship built to transport U.S. troops and supplies to Europe. After being decommissioned, the ship was intentionally grounded and later used as a breakwater for the CYC marina.

On October 24th at 4:30 p.m., the Village will dedicate and unveil the plaque near the riverfront gazebo at Donahue Memorial Park, where visitors can learn more about this fascinating piece of history.

Thank you to the Cornwall Yacht Club for helping us honor and share this unique part of our local history.
