Providence nav hazard.
If anyone here launches from Bold point,in East Providence,or upriver from it,there are three red cans marking the channel,heading out into the bay,after india point.At the 3rd can (going out)or 1st can(coming in)there is a piling that must have gotten stuck during the flooding.It sits with its bottom lodged in the bottom,pointing towards you if you are entering Providence harbor,at a 45 degree angle,and will impale your boat.It is invisible at high water.It sits about 30-40 ft from the third can,in the channel.If you hug the can,you'll be safe.
I've been trying to reach the cg to report it,but can't get through.If anyone has a good contact number,please post it. |

Thanks DZ.Called,reported,and hopefully soon to be removed.:)
I'll be saving the number,as well. |
It's in the channel? wow, how's it staying there
Bobby, Were you in that area Sat mid day? Think I buzzed by your boat. I got a key largo with teal ttop |
Saturday?Yes.Ugly green overpowered 16 ft Starcraft stuntboat.:smash:
The thing seems like its stuck in the bottom,and floats with the tide so it's always 1 ft above water,till the tide covers it.Scary. |
yeah pretty sure it was yours, you were off to the side, I was steaming so favored the opposite side to not swamp ya :grins:
