Summary[edit]

Description

While trying to photograph ospreys on their nest located atop the lift section of the bridge, the horn sounded and the lift section slowly went up one level. The ospreys did not mind at all. The bridge was raised to allow this tour boat (Merrymeeting) from the Maine Maritime Museum, located about a half mile down river, to take the sightseers up river for a closer look at Bath. At high tide the clearance below this old bridge is limited. If you visit Bath consider the museum as a stop. They offer several different tours.

The Maine Maritime Museum, formerly the Bath Marine Museum, offers exhibits about Maine's maritime heritage, culture and the role Maine has played in regional and global maritime activities. The Maine Maritime Museum has a large and quirky collection, made up of more than 20,000 documents, artifacts and pieces of artwork and includes an extensive research library.

The museum is set on a scenic active waterfront on the banks of the Kennebec River and includes the historic Percy and Small Shipyard with five original 19th-century buildings, a Victorian-era shipyard owner's home and New England's largest sculpture – a full size representation of the largest wooden sailing vessel ever built, the six-masted schooner Wyoming.[Wikipedia]
