Try that on a sunny Saturday afternoon !!!


as our cottage looks out onto that area it always presents entertainment and an occasional shout of "DID YOU SEE THAT !"

I avoid that spot unless I am going, or have gone, under the bridge. I also cannot recall the last time I passed between Eagle Island and Governor's Island and have no idea why people do unless they never intend to exceed headway speed. IMO, it's much less stressful to go around the other side of Eagle Island and you can stay at a nice and efficient planing speed most of the time. Plus you get the added entertainment of watching people obliviously cruise over the rocky bits, up close.
