That reef wasn't there last time we came

to Montague... there is a channel that you can enter Montague from the north, it has a couple of reefs that one must be aware of.... DO NOT CUT THE CORNERS , as the "MIRAGE lV" will tell you all about cutting corners, he wedged his 40+ power boat up on the reef  this weekend and there he sat until help arrived to pull him off.. Damage was done, how much, who knows until the power boat gets inspected, their holiday ruined and the cost will be , well I hope his charge cards are clear cause he is going to need them... The boat is still floating but pumping water, something to do with the stuffin box and shaft. okay guys just cause ya can't see the buggers does not mean they are not there,,,,

stay safe and dry guys...

  2. The first victim of the year. That did not take long!It is amazing how those migrating rocks jump in the way of moving vessels all of the time! The ocean has charts for a reason...they are more than a cute way to decorate the dining table. See you guys next weekend! - M & N
