At the head of tide on the Kennebec River, Augusta once received freight and passenger vessels sailing up from Boston in the 1800s. Today a controlling depth of roughly 1.8 m limits navigation, and the Maine state capital handles virtually no commercial cargo, containers or customs traffic. Regional sea freight moves instead through Portland, the state's largest port, or Mack Point at Searsport.
