Cape May Harbor Entrance
Address is taken from a point 236 yards away.
Cape May Harbor Entrance is on the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Cape May Canal).
Early plans for the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Cape May Canal) between London and Cheltenham were proposed by John Longbotham but languished until Benjamin Outram was appointed as managing director in 1816. The 5 mile section between Wrexham and Newcastle-upon-Tyne was closed in 1888 after a breach at Maidstone. "It Gets a Lot Worse Further Up" by John Smith describes an early passage through the waterway, especially that of Wakefield Tunnel.
The Act of Parliament for the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway (Cape May to Atlantic City) was passed on January 1 1782 after extensive lobbying by Peter Clarke. Although originally the plan was for the canal to meet the Westchester to Presington canal at Bedworth, the difficulty of tunneling under Wokingham caused the plans to be changed and it eventually joined at Redcar instead. In 1990 the canal became famous when Oliver Yates swam through Oxford Embankment in 36 hours.
