Why Radar Is A Good Thing

Coming home on Thursday we hit a thick fog bank between the Verrazano Bridge and Sandy Hook, and visibility went down to under 50′. When you’re doing 30+ knots on a boat with 300 people on it across one of the busiest stretches of ocean in the US, it’s nice to know (well, hope) that the Captain can see if there’s anything in our path.

   The fog comes
   on little cat feet.
   It sits looking
   over harbor and city
   on silent haunches
   and then moves on.
