Default For Larry and other arrogant law-breakers.

Read and understand the laws that cover your part of the world Larry before
you kill or maim some innocent soul.


"With certain exceptions, the following activities are
prohibited Sanctuary-Wide:
.. Removing, injuring, or possessing coral or live rock.
.. Discharging or depositing trash or other pollutants.
.. Dredging, drilling, prop dredging or otherwise altering
the seabed, or placing or abandoning any structure on
the seabed.
.. Operating a vessel in such a manner as to strike or
otherwise injure coral, seagrass, or other immobile
organisms attached to the seabed, or cause prop
scarring.
.. Having a vessel anchored on living coral in water less
than 40 feet deep when the bottom can be seen.
Anchoring on hardbottom is allowed.
.. Except in officially marked channels, operating a vessel
at more than 4 knots/no wake within 100 yards of
residential shorelines, stationary vessels, or navigational
aids marking reefs.
.. Operating a vessel at more than 4 knots/no wake
within 100 feet of a "divers down" flag.
.. Diving or snorkeling without a dive flag.
.. Operating a vessel in such a manner which endangers
life, limb, marine resources, or property."

And it goes on and on . . .
