June 6-12, 2009. The Hudson River:     For 8 days, Launch 5 & crew served as the floating safety and security command post for the Hudson River Quadricentennial Celebration. A flotilla of sailing ships led by the Half Moon - a replica of Henry Hudson's ship - set sail out of New York Harbor on June 6 bound for Albany. The trip took a week with stopovers at various towns along the way.
