To the Editor:

The windmill project is doomed for failure. Not are they unsafe, but they are dangerous to all ocean-going activities. Twelve to 15 miles off the coast the New York shipping lanes with hundreds of ships and tugboats a year use the Ambrose approach, as it’s called.

Winter storms with ice (yes, in a storm offshore) are very scary. Working in those conditions is not fun – been there, done that. Wildlife including whales and birds will take it on the chin.
