You're right, they are both breakwaters. I think the local term for the structure that runs out to Wood End is "the jetty."

We were inside the "breakwater" (by the wharf) for the 4th of July fireworks watching from the boat..and you should have seen the cormorants and gulls take off when the first couple of salvos went off.

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
