I saw a tug moving up the Canal yesterday on the way home that was
making quite a wake.

I wonder if they warned him?



Last June when I took "Pangea" through the canal enroute to Scituate I hit
the canal at the worst time and could only manage 3 kts. against a 4.5-5 kt
current. The little GB chugged along, throwing (for it) a pretty decent
wake.

Halfway through the canal, I noticed the patrol boat following in our wake.
He finally pulled up beside me, waved, and passed.

I think he felt sorry for me.
