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.
