LaDuchesse @ The ABM

Antique Boat Museum

Clayton NY:

Stepping Backwards In Time:

"The 106′ houseboat La Duchesse brings the gracious River lifestyle of one hundred years ago to life. Built in 1903 for hotelier George Boldt. Generously donated by the McNally family, of Wellesley Island, NY, and Chicago, IL, she opened for visitors at the Museum in July of 2005".

The video is a virtual walk through of this magnificent houseboat. But you really should visit the ABM and walk through it to feel it's history.....
