20 being sent to raven right now.

Only problem is that you managed to crash into a rock right when you left the harbor. then crash a couple more times after that.

Even at Moon hightides I think a new bottom would be required. Without some type of marker in the center of the area, are there any correct answers to this puzzle? Or is simply staying alive on the charted courses the answer.

i just told SluggoSlinger the answer to his dad's problem which i originally thought was a humorous thread...but hadn't the chance to read it until just now....and i always cut right to the chase and never hold back what's clearly on my mind...

i have seen and done so many radical things while out in cali
that i am hardcore now compared to when i left new england in 1970 as a pure teenager....

i don't do illegal things but i will do what ever it takes too...
........this guy needs a major wake up call is all i am saying...

but hey i am way off the topic of this thread and am very grateful for your nice contribution and of course the thought behind it too...
