and their ain't no way *you* will EVER get sucked by them.

I don't know what JaxAss is trying to prove, other than being

He's trying to get someone to buy into a long, inane argument on the
mathematical properties of waves. A 5' wave will break in 6.5' of water,
making much of the Chesapeake incapable of supporting it, of course this
disregards many other factors.

It's along the edges in the mid-Bay where it shallows up. There's plenty
of water once you are away from shore a ways. At the Calvert Cliffs, for
example, once you are out a half mile or so, there's 20' of water, and
you can watch your depth gauge drop down to 80-90' or so as you get to
the channel.

The comment I offered here was on the depths of water I've measured in a
particular area. If you want to dispute the numbers, go right ahead. But
Thunder is right: you simply are trying to suck posters into another of
your long, inane arguments. In that regard, you're like that ugly old
witch from Australia--Lucretia Smith.
