In 1776, sensing the importance of New London, the Connecticut General Assembly sent a committee to New London to determine how to protect this vital port. Come see the harbor as they did and learn about the forts of the harbor and the parts they played in the 1781 Raid on New London. This boat tour departs from Thames River Landing on Thames Street Groton, CT.
