"NE Sailboat" wrote in message news:xxwKh.12283$vb.6745@trndny04... "cable ferries" ?? what is a cable ferry? We have two cable type ferries that I know about in Nova Scotia. As charles said, a cable is laid across the usually narrow channel and keeps the small open type ferries from being swept with the current. Did't we see an old fashioned hand operated version in 'The Outlaw Josey Wales'? Here's the one at Englishtown in cape Breton.http://www.pbase.com/murd/image/21381016 plus http://marinas.com/view/inlet/1769 Hey Don, There are two I know of on Cape Breton alone, Englishtown, St. Annes Bay you mentioned and Little Narrows on Whycocomagh Bay, Bras d'Or lakes. On mainland Nova Scotia, there's Country Harbour Ferry and LaHave Ferry. http://marinas.com/browse/ferry/CA/NS/ |
