Thanks to all for the feedback on my charger problem. I'll be doing
further investigation this weekend and will report back.
In response to Jon Vez re Cohasset, we are way overdue for a dredging
and things are getting interesting. Shoaling at the entrance to the
inner harbor (50 - 75 yards off Whitehead - see chart) has become
severe, with only about 3 1/2 feet of water in the center of the channel
at low water on an extreme low tide. However, it's a 9 ft. tidal swing,
and about two and a half hours either side of dead low you can
comfortably navigate the channel, like the two dozen of us sailboats who
reside there do pretty regularly. A well kept secret is that there are
two seldom used transient moorings in the inner harbor ("Cohasset Cove"
on the chart) managed by the Harbor Master, Laurie Gibbons. She'll let
you have one for $30 a night. And there are several pretty good
restaurants within walking distance - two on the harbor, two downtown
(1/2 mile walk). It's a picturesque place to spend a night if I do say
so. Quintessential New England.
