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.



Right, W'hine. "Nothing" can happen to your and yours. snerk


Wayne seems to be managing his risks quite well. You on the other hand
bought a low transom Parker with a big sail on top. Talk about thumbing your
nose at Davy Jones. Wahhh Ha Ha. WAFA
