I use tools such as WaterWay Guide, Active Captain, forums, etc. as I cruise.
These include reviews and comments on bridges and locks all long the eastern seaboard.
There seems to be an inordinate amount of criticism of bridge and lock tenders on these tools.
I must say I have never in twenty years of cruising these waters had an issue with the folks that we call bridge and lock tenders.
Went through a number of bridges and locks this past week, and each time we have been treated well and passed through with pleasantries, it has left me wondering, is it the vocal negative cruising minority that create this view rather than the tenders?
