What were you saying, other than you were lost at Cape Hatteras? The shoals
extend out 9 miles. The very visible lighthouse is another 5 miles beyond that.
With 3 GPS's and Loran on board, how could you possibly be so confused that you
were within 20 seconds of turning back?

As for "not charted," what do you think the meaning of "Hydrography is not
charted on Diamond Shoals due to the changeable nature of the area. Navigation
in the area is extremely hazardous to all types of craft."? If you ever looked
at a chart of the area you might know this.

This is why you couldn't possibly have been within 10 miles of the picture you
posted jaxie. You're still lost!!! What a Putz!

thanks for the photo. It shows what I was saying.

As for the area not being charted, you yourself posted the chart for the area
in question two days ago.

have another sundowner, jeff.

OK, here's an "aerial photograph" taken by the Apollo 9 astronauts.

For scale, the long beach from C Hatteras (to the right of center) and C
Lookout
(bottom left) is about 60 miles long. One can clear see Diamond Shoals
extending 9 miles off of Hatteras. Since the shoals are not charted, it is
not
wise to cross them.

Yes, I *do* know where I was.

The why did you post a picture of 10 miles away and point out how dangerous
it
looks? You're still lost!


I was somewhere you have never been within
33,000 vertical feet of.


If you ever figure out where that was, do tell us!
