This item from the CBYRA newsletter may be of interest to members.
Chickahominy is
closed right now, anyway, because the bridge is broken.
IMPORTANT: Troubled Bridge over River Waters: Garland Gray passes along
information
that is important to southern Bay racers and cruisers: The swing bridge at the
mouth
of the Chickahominy River at the James River is about to be replaced with a
fixed
span of 45 or 51 feet (planned height has changed). A number of Tidewater area
sailors and visitors have used the Chickahominy as a hurricane hole. The height
of
the bridge is crucial, of course. Garland passes along two key points of
contact for
the public to call to comment on the project: Terry Knowles with the Coast
Guard at
(757) 398-6222 and Larry Hedgepath with VDOT at (804) 786-6369. Pick up the
phone
and dial now - if Isabel's cousin shows up this fall, your comments could be
too
late!
Thanks, John Wandling
