OK, so the Cohansey river was unique and absolutely isolated except for the very visible mammoth steam plume from the nearby Salem nuclear plant. Then again, I guess that’s better than a mammoth coal dust plume, at least as long as nothing goes wrong and someone figures out how to “retire” the plant eventually.
Once underway, it was the normal challenge of crabpot dodging – good thing I had that strong coffee.
Lucky people who have a short enough mast to cut through the canal rather than go around the outside!
Finally we made it into the harbor and kicked back for the night. But not before the Coast Guard showed up and made all the boats move closer to shore so we were no where near the channel. Our shallow draft came in handy. Next day we had a quick look around the harbor then a long walk through town to the grocery store.
With groceries in hand, it was a long walk back to the boat for a beautiful sunset before setting off to Block Island.
