One day we were entering the Hog Island Channel heading East and coming right at us with a big bell on (against the current) is USCG 150 footer. His wake damn near capsized us (Pearson 39 yawl) and we just did get the forward hatch closed in time....If we ever do Maine again we'll just go out Nantucket Sound and up to P-town. We did it once before and on a nice day (the only kind of days we venture forth it is a beautiful passage...We have some family memories of the 'canal'.
