Re: Where to cruise if you're too tall for the ICW??

One correction: The Sakonnet River bridge in Tiverton, RI was taken down a couple of years ago and a new bridge has taken its place... The new bridge has a 76' clearance for 300' at center. Much better. The old one really caused some problems.


FWIW
