I have taken my 21' bow rider in the cove many times but always late in the season. If my windshield folded down I could go in all year. I once arranged to be in the pipe when the train went overhead.

How often on Winni do you get a train to pass over your boat? Wish I had a picture of it.

That's cool. I once timed it so that I drove my car under an oil tanker on the Chesapeake Bay bridge/tunnel for similar reasons.

Couple things:

1. that is not a water pipe but a sewer pipe.

2. the cove does fill with weeds/pads as the summer progresses - especially down towards the end by Hilliard Rd.

3. the culvert does not freeze during the winter but accessing the local trails, especially the tracks, is not a problem during the winter.

Good luck with the purchase!
