aerial photo Cape Hatteras
 

For jeffies who thinks rounding Cape Hatteras but staying to the west of the
Gulf Stream is a piece of cake, here is an aerial photo of the Cape. Notice
that while there are no white caps on the water (meaning winds less than 12
knots), there are distincly showing breaking waves (many) off the tip of Cape
Hatteras shown in the lower right hand corner

This is the only aerial I found of CH. If someone knows of others, do share
the source with us.

I can see your problem, jaxie. This picture only shows about 1000 yards off the
beach. If you went anywhere near this you'd be in serious trouble! Diamond
Shoal Light is about 10 miles offshore. Although you can cut inside of it,
there's probably no need. At any rate, you'd want to stay at least 6 of seven
miles off shore - that picture of yours is less than that in total width.

Give it up, jaxie, you're just proving that your navigational skills are
abysmal! Its a good thing all you do is hitch rides as a swabbie!

jeffies, you were invited to post an aerial photo, but it seems you don't know
what either "aerial" or "photo" means.

strange, strange, strange isn't just how hard jeffies -- driver of a motorized
training wheels and prior owner of an old man's boat (that IS how the builder
of jeffies prior boat does in fact advertise its product) -- works to claim
*his* assessment of the waters around Cape Hatteras are superior to that of a
career merchant marine with a couple decades ocean racing experience and who
had rounded the Cape a number of times in the past.

training wheels drivers tend to think that wearing training wheels solves all
issues.

That fact that you posted a picture of shoals 10 miles away from where you were
just shows that you were scared ****less because you were lost! You still don't
know where you were!

Sorry jaxie, claiming you where "near someone" who might have experience doesn't
mean anything You've certainly proven here that you have no idea what what
going on, and you still don't know within 10 miles what the proper course around
C. Hatteras is.

Yes, I *do* know where I was. I was somewhere you have never been within
33,000 vertical feet of.

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

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

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

http://www.najaco.com/space/apollo/p...1/10075069.htm

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.

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.

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!
