Approaching New London

 Groton, CT

The Charles W Morgan is seen here passing two well known landmarks of New London.  The upper photo shows the Morgan as she passes the Ledge Light which marks the mouth of the Thames River. In the lower photo, the New London Harbor light can be seen.  By all accounts, the ship towed really well, and the voyage from Mystic Seaport to New London went quicker than expected, taking a little over 3 hours.
