Here are the previous posts I’ve done on the wind farm southeast of Block Island. I took the photo below on June 27, as blades to spin the turbines arrived in Narragansett Bay.
Rod Smith took the rest of these photos in late July and early August.
It shows Brave Tern as it prepared to sail out to the farm, deploy its sea legs . . aka spuds . .
and put the caps atop the columns onto the bases.
For the specs on Brave Tern, you can check them out here,
or here,

And check out the froth from her stern!
To keep up with construction off Block Island, check out the Deepwater Water site. Or for even more updates, friend them on FB.
Many thanks to Rod Smith for all these photos except the first one.
I hope to get out that way in October.
