This cache is placed on Ferry Road where there used to be a ferry that shuttled people across to get to and from the island.
The ferry is no longer in service. There is now a bridge to the island. In 1899, the Westport-Wiscasset Ferry was established; This ferry, located at what is now called Ferry Road, was in service for fifty-one years.
A scow was the first ferry boat. It would take two model Ts across. It came across on a wire that you pulled on. Passengers used a horn to signal that they wanted to go across.
The ferry operated until a causeway was dedicated in 1950. but the causeway plugged up the river and made the water warmer so they made them take out the fill and put in the new bridge
The cache is a magnetic key holder containing only the log. Please re-hide as found
Congrats to islandjoneskids2 for the ftf
