Pops maneuvered over to the near side of the pipe so I could get a close up.

Nice set of Cape Cod Canal pics . I have not seen POPS in many years .

Through the C & D Canal on a pipeline tow they have a front tug towing
and a rear "tail" boat making sure the pipe doesn't go sideways . But
I have never seen a side boat like POPS is here . Interesting .

Thanks Lee.
Pops wasn't doing any work, just hanging around. I just looked at the C&D
and it is quite a bit straighter than the Cape Cod Canal. I wonder if Pops
was there just-in-case due to the curves?
Whatever the reason, it was a nice day to be on the water.
