I heard about this a while back. I wonder how far away they'll keep the boat guys. That pier coupled with a few high speed chum grinders will make for some killer BSB structure.

I can just imagine the havoc a couple hundred yards of braid will inflict on a 125k dollar turbine.

Don't see this coming to fruition.

well the electrical infrastructure has eroded to defunct level
so new approaches to power have to implemented somewhere.

Saw this NEW Battery a guy @ MIT invented (today)
that is around the size of a clothes dryer
but it has liquid metal inside and can store
electrical power crazy good....

his invention will help to save the day

Probably right after they widen the tunnel.

they are widening the tunnel ? chit ! . Id rather see a power pier than a tunnel widening . bigger isnt always better ( a woman told me this once ) .

Bob, at least at low tide in the tunnel you can get a bucket if cherrystones. If they widen it maybe they seed the larger area with scallops.
