We had a bit of a scare off our coast yesterday also.
This large vessel was drifting 40nm out in the heavy nor easter we just suffered.
We got almost 6 inches of rain over a day and a half plus the heavy winds and seas.

Why did the ferry take on large high center of gravity vehicles in those
sea conditions?


Show me the money?
