I fish Horseshoe Shoal quite often in the summertime, it's a great spot to get some bluefish, sort of a money in the bank type of spot. After lots of debate, I have to say, we need to do this. I will be sad losing, possibly, a fishing ground, but I think it is the lesser of two evils. We need to find alternative engery sources.

Why can't we put these things on dry ground too? I say throw up a few of these in my Town, on Town owned land, and power municipal buildings, as a start.

And another thing, I am offended that a Senator from Alaska has stepped in and could effect what happens here on the Cape! Wasn't this the same guy who sponsored a bil to build a bridge to some Alaskan Island where 50 people live at the cost of a billion dollars??? If I remember correctly he told the nation to go dump in our hats as he knew what was best for Alaska, not the lower 48...... Hmmm

My Mistake:

I checked after posting, it's U.S. Rep. Don Young, R-Alaska, who is sponsoring the bill, sorry.....

Hooper, I agree, would love to see every town have a few to power some schools, town buildings etc..
Maybe someone from Hull can offer some details on their turbine
