Holiday weekend means more marine traffic

I started hearing more radio traffic on marine Ch 16 today than usual. When I went out of the house to run some errands I noticed that nearly all of the parking spaces around the boat ramps were full of empty trailers, and I could see a lot of boats out on the inland waterway.

Today and tomorrow are probably going to be good days for monitoring the marine channels if you are in the US and near bodies of water.

Here in Virginia (Hampton Roads), the state terminals closed down for Labor Day, resulting in a flurry of incoming commercial traffic on the 5th
