Had a feeling that's where you were heading, but there's really no marine answer to it that I know of. Other than monitoring blogs by cruisers,...
Good idea. Before I read this post I was going to suggest it. Boat repairs are so costly that most boaters look to DIY on most things, but...
As Capt. J points out the charts will give you the bottom (mud, sand, rock, etc.), the depths and a lot about the topography. Cruising guides...
I've always said that if (when) I die in this business it'll be coming in an inlet. Can't say I've been through the worst at the worst times, but...
Sounds like he wanted a signature, although that can be handled with the right computer program which are often used by the government. My home...
Emails are used as evidence in U.S. courts all the time. Is it better than a signed contract? No. Is it better than he said/she said? Hell yeah.
Ever try to take the car keys away from a drunk who feels he's fine to drive? Now add in that the drunk is your employer. Request or suggest?...
I'm afraid you actually have that backwards. Your responsibility comes into play when, after the incident, the owner and his lawyer say he was...
I understand the OP's curiosity. First, it's a long stretch of ocean that is often radically different than what's above O.C. Once you're doing...

Good move. When you have the chance take a look at the date of your chart. Odds are it's from the 1980's. The Notices to Mariners should be up...
Welcome to dealing with the military. lol. It's all in the book. Independent thinking not encouraged....liability, responsibility. What they...
Used to live there on the 15St. camal. Nice, but it's also fun to get out on the bike with a wind-chill of -20*F or so once in awhile. Gives me...
[ATTACH] Yeah, think I prefer my current view thank you.:cool: Stay warm Rodger.
Nice.
Just don't leave it sitting in that water for 8 months unmoved. It'll move nowhere when you're ready to go. (Barnacles, salt corrosion,...
Yeah, I'm sure I'd trust them.:rolleyes: It's great that they were able to protect themselves with seperate corporations, but the smart boat...
Last year I was running from Southport to Georgetown in that ice storm, breaking 2" of ice off our decks and sliding down the dock ramps. This...
I clipped on the vid from Coinjock to AYB. With it being condenced it was a lot faster than any time I've done the trip. lol. Very cool...
Sounds like your talking about Georgetown Landing. That's my regular stop as well. Georgetown, Charleston and Port Royal are all good inlets....
