Navy takes away fun
 
Canadian Navy has announced they are beefing up security around the
dockyard waters in Halifax Harbour.
Our skipper loved to sail right up to and in-between the piers at the
base. This always caused a rucus with sailors & security people
scrambling to the edge of the dock screaming at us to come over. Our
skipper would pretend he didn't hear them and just change course & sail
away. Now we wouldn't get within 200 meters of the ships.

Sounds like your skipper is an incredibly smart guy. That kind of respect
for others is what causees blanket restrictions on all boaters.

Lucky they did not record the numbers and come and confiscate the boat.
