There's a major difference: Coral heads are generally charted unless
you are boondocking, crab traps and lobster pots, never.

Hitting a coral head fast enough to hole your boat requires a great
deal of negligence, incredibly bad luck or both. Anyone who has *not*
snagged a trap at one time or another has not really been there.
