The owner of Stimpsons Island, at the eastern end of Fox Islands Thorofare, sent us the following:
In the latest edition of Cruising Guide to the Maine Coast on page 218, has the sentence "The easiest passage is between Stimpsons and Calderwood, providing a good daystop and beaches to explore". One interpretation of this would be that Stimpsons is a public island, but it is privately owned (we own it).
A better phrasing would be something on the order of "The easiest passage is between Stimpsons and Calderwood. Stimpsons is privately owned, but Calderwood provides a good daystop and beaches to explore".
Also, when anchoring between Stimpsons and North Haven, we have an underwater high-voltage cable running from North Haven which is not marked on the charts, but is indicated by yellow Cable Crossing signs on either shoreline.
I really enjoy your book and use it a lot. Thanks for a great product.
Thank you for this much more precise text. It is posted at http://www.coastguides.com/r4/4.39Littlethoro.html
