The Seneca Lake Pier
Below, the Stroller IV, our tour boat

We had beautiful weather at the lakes, and we went for two boat rides. At Watkins Glen we toured sedately around Seneca Lake in a 1934 "motor vessel" made of Phillipines mahogony that was purpose-built and has been plying the lake tour route since it was christened.
At Otsego, we rode in the front on the second-story prow (what's that called?) of a much bigger ship. So fun. The trees cover most of the shoreline, as something like eighty percent of the lakefront property is undeveloped. And then we had lunch.

Veggie burger at Cooperstown's Lake Front restaurant comes with fruit, yum.

Okay, the boat is called 'The Stroller', so this means you nwere walking on water? How biblical.
Glad to hear it was 'purpose-built' as a boat. Unlike those other boats on the lake that started out as, say, Greyhound buses.
Oh, for..purpose built AS A TOUR boat, not a RE-purposed private yacht.
