Glass Bottom Water Taxi Coming To The Mohawk River

The Mohawk River Cruises company has licensed its first glass-bottom boat to begin commercial operation on the Mohawk River. Would you want to take a ride looking at the water?

Now if you wanted to take a ride on this boat here in Central New York, you will be out of luck. The four destinations planned for this tour to stop is all out in the Capital Region. If you make the trip down the road, the stops include: Mohawk Harbor and the Stockade Neighborhood in Schenectady; Scotia Landing; and the Water's Edge Lighthouse in Glenville.

According to Spectrum News, if you want to take a ride, day passes will sell between $10 and $20, with other extended offers for weekend travel or year-long ride passes. No word if this taxi system would consider options here in Central New York. I would imagine the Mohawk River isn't deep enough at most parts to pull this off locally like out in Albany.
