..just beyond the 12 Mile Limit. They were monitoring communications from Pease AFB and the Subs coming in and out of the Navy Yard. A fisherman I knew said they would go out to it and trade Booze and cigarettes to the crew. No big deal and the crew were friendly. I think it was called the Remora, after the fish that attach themselves to Sharks and Whales.
