A new dock that will allow Thames River Heritage Park water taxis to stop at the Submarine Force Library and Museum and the historic submarine Nautilus is expected to be in operation for the 2025 water taxi season.
The dock has been installed and is nearly complete.
“It’s been envisioned for quite some time to link Fort Trumbull, downtown New London, Groton, and the Submarine Force Museum with the Thames River Heritage Park,” said retired U.S. Navy Capt. Paul Whitescarver, who is on the Thames River Heritage Park board of directors and recently stepped down as president.
