| Summary: | hole Mr. E. P. Henley explained the basic difference between ["Coves" and "Holes" ] (i.e. Hibbs Hole) My brother explained it to me as follow."Years/ ago when a schooner sailed into an inlet it was usually under full sail. Various inlets were named "coves" or "holes", according to whether or not a ship could go out of them under full sail. If the schooners could go out of the inlet under full sail, the inlet was called a cove. If however, the schooner had to use other methods, like rowing, to get out, then the inlet was called a hole."
