Mariners must find their way carefully among all the vessels and aids to navigation in this impressive nautical crossroads. Many of us cruising the waters covered by the many editions of Waterway Guide will never experience a busier harbor than Hampton Roads. It is just as busy (if not busier) than New York Harbor.
