New London, CT 2015
During a recent walk around New London, I happened to luck out and be a good position to watch the Cross Sound Ferry Susan Anne, returning from Orient Point, NY. The ferry actually backs into the dock stern first. The boat turns around, without the aide of any tugboats, and just backs in. I wonder if the captain has rear view mirrors?
I've seen many ferry boats that have a bridge at each end so the crew is always facing forward no matter what direction the boat is going. Not sure this is so here. I suspect a skilled captain is at work.
