Foggy Morning Paddle

This was a short trip out to Fort Gorges that ended up including an exciting encounter with an anchored tanker. Teton's friend, Quinn, had never been to the WWII fort that resides just a mile off the Portland's shores so the duo headed out there one morning.

You never know what you will encounter in Portland's busy Casco Bay harbor, this morning a large tanker was stationed seemingly out in the middle of nowhere.

It was fun and a bit unnerving to approach the tanker which towered over our small vessels.

Teton touched the butt!
