Woods Hole can be one scary place when the current is ripping through
there. I have done a fair amount of boating over the years and still
regard it as one of the most dangerous places on the east coast.

My first time through Woods Hole (on the way to the Vineyard) was a tense
passage, mainly due to all the horror stories I had heard. That was on the
Navigator. I haven't been through on the GB yet and if and when I do, I'll
be very picky about timing the passage with regard to the tide and current.
The Navigator has the power you need. The GB doesn't.

Another dangerous inlet, in my opinion, is Jupiter Inlet in Florida. Fetch
can build some rough water as you approach and the "channel" is constantly
shifting due to storms.
