🤷‍♂️, beats me. I remember when I lived in Beverly, Salem had old replica boats sailing out near the Beverly channel and occasionally fire off blanks from the cannons. Always scared the shit out of me because it was a terrifying boom. Maybe a similar tour made it up the few miles further north?

How far do they fire? There were no boats to be seen but maybe over the horizon?

They were incredibly loud when I would be kayaking just a mile or so south of the Misery Islands, so actually it's not totally implausible that that's what you heard.
