Sub sighting

Post by Mike S »

Snapped this photo at the Sub Buoy (where else!) on Sunday morning while returning from SW Ledge. The photo shows a sub headed to sea with Block Island visible in the background. We were 1/2 mile away at the time the photo was taken.

I had the pleasure of seeing one some years ago, but from an ariel view on a flight from Westerly R.I. to Block Island. Was heading out to sea also.

Reliable sources tell me that this is a Virginia class boat. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virginia-class_submarine
