Yeah, the QEII (I think) ran aground about 20 years ago just off the
Elizabeth Islands on Cape Cod and in one of the most heavily traveled
areas of New England. The chart turned out to be wrong.

Not that any of us will be cruising at 30 knots 500 feet below the

but navigating soly by GPS you are just as blind. Many of the
charts we use
are from surveys over 100 years old.
