There's a major difference: Coral heads are generally charted unless

Hitting a coral head fast enough to hole your boat requires a great

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
