Dang !!! It's on the Chart !!! :crook
Spent several days at the Prevost Hbr. dock, Reid Is. last
week and in two days, 3 boats hit the reef at the south western
end of the bay, in front of the ranger's house. :embarrased
Two power boats and one sailer. The sailboat got off easy,
but the two power boats were holed and had to be beached. :sad

No injuries, but no excuses either. One powerboat was a local,
in broad daylight and the other was a young couple with a couple
of kids running in the dark. Dang!!! :amgry , but as I said before,
no injuries, except to the boats....

Jack... :smiled
 
We were there last summer and a power boat hit during low tide. Another couple in a Grady White tried pulling him off, but no luck. He had to wait until the tide came in.
 
Very Cool Roger, :thup
"the most frequently hit rocks in the San Juan Islands"

I hadn't seen that one before. It
should be required reading. :wink

Nutty B, :smile
I know there is a shelf that goes out from Jones on the West side, but
the real sneaker is the unmarked shoal on the East side. It's quite large,
but only shows on a real low tide. I dove that spot and the Red Sea Urchins there are huge. :smileo

Lots of traps for the unwary. :crook

Looks like a worthwhile function for those with a dedicated chart plotter. :thup
Personally, I prefer the idea of a multifunction unit.
Along with my paper charts, I use a 15.5" laptop and
a notebook, both with Captn's.

That way, I can keep a log, down load the camera, or e-mail ahead for reservations and on rainy nights we can watch a movie. :wink
