Watch a drone video of the Viking ship Draken leaving Kingston

Pete Kennedy shared another video from a drone focusing on the Viking ship Draken, which had been docked at the Hudson River Maritime Museum on the Rondout in Kingston since Friday. The boat was open for tours on Friday, Saturday and Monday, and on a Saturday visit, many people could be seen taking tours (along with the John J. Harvey 1930s-era fireboat, which came back on service on 9/11).

Kennedy had previously posted a drone video on Friday, when the ship arrived.

"The crew of the Draken Harald Hårfagre left Kingston this morning to begin their trip down to New York City," Kennedy wrote. "The weather was beautiful and cool, a perfect fall day for the trip. I wish them good luck on their voyage and thank you for making us a part of it."

The ship was a sight. I hope you had a chance to see it.

I didn't take the tour myself on Saturday. We had other priorities.

Drone captures Viking ship in Kingston

Pete Kennedy shared this video of the Viking ship Draken docked at the Hudson River Maritime Museum in Downtown Kingston today, shot from a drone.

The ship will be open for tours this weekend at the museum, except for Sunday (9/11) and on Monday. It will be docked in Kingston until Thursday, when it will resume its world voyage, ending in New York City.

The Maritime Museum's Lanna Chassman told the Freeman that people are very excited about the visit, and that sounds about right, if all your shares on Facebook on the stories we've done are any
indication.

Deck tours take place today, from noon to 7 p.m.; Saturday, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.; and Monday from 2 p.m.-6 p.m. Tours are $10, $5 for children.
