I live in Seaview...just about two days ago I was down at the ocean and remember seeing boats so close to the shore..you almost never see boats offshore here because the water is so shallow and the currents are so strong..but you do see them in crab season...I asked someone at work why they were even closer than ever..I mean right where the waves break..and he said they were probably picking up their crab pots..and they use the boats for multiple purposes so they could crab out of a fishing boat that would not be suitable for the territory they were in. Today is a clamming day so if anything should wash ashore it would be quickly found.

Here is my new song that I have never even sung

Crab Boat Song

One by one they turn their lights on
All the boats at sea
There is one I set my sights on
Shine your lights on me

First they flicker then they twinkle
All the boats at sea
The ocean turns to periwinkle
Shine your light on me

Every family has a son
All the boats at sea
You pray he will not be the one
Shine your light on me

Every family has a daughter
All the boats at sea
Don't let her fall into the water
Shine your light on me

What will all their crabbing fetch
All the boats at sea
Still it is the deadly catch
Shine your light on me

Shallow banks and foul weather
All the boats at sea
At least they're lined up all together
Shine your light on me
