That would be C. Bonus point if you can name the town in which I catch the ferry. (No Googling.)

Is it near the mouth of the river where they were hiding the submarine in the ending scene of the movie "Hunt for Red October"?

Such a great film.

I am of no use to you, Freddy. I still haven't seen that film. (Ducking from the incoming disbelief.)

I aimed the bonus question at Gap, who is from these parts. I want to see if he remembered (or even knew in the first place).

I know there is a ferry out of Rockland, but not sure if it goes to Islesboro or not. There may be one that goes to Vinalhaven and one to Islesboro out of Rockland.

Vinalhaven and North Haven are served by Rockland; Islesboro is served by Lincolnville. (I had to look it up myself to be sure.)

That's very cool. Not too many ferrys (boats, that is ) in the Atlanta area.

The school has my tickets waiting on the mainland.

This is a first for me, and I grew up in a little fishing village not far from these islands. Anyone else of shoreline locales get to do this?

Our association covers the San Juan Islands. Ferry to all of them
