Local lore has it that they were removed simply by cutting the moorings, leaving the anchors and chains littering the bottom at that location. So... good to know where they were, even if they are not longer there. Although, in our ignorance, we anchored pretty close to that spot last year and didn't snag anything.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18347291712160844122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6178563583693618350.post-87296269471455073592010-08-10T17:59:27.149-07:002010-08-10T17:59:27.149-07:00@Bob - I believe you have to pay for chart updates...@Bob - I believe you have to pay for chart updates...of course.<br />@Steve - I didn't know that actually. We just prefer to avoid the mussel/barnacle coated buggers generally unless they are there to protect the bottom or in a deep provincial/state park (like Jones Island).Liviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14711381613361196152noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6178563583693618350.post-9973259477826934532010-08-06T08:50:09.434-07:002010-08-06T08:50:09.434-07:00Livia,

I sure hope so...<br /><br />It takes just one error to shake your faith in the charts, doesn't it?<br /><br />bobRobert Salnickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17236481906016930762noreply@blogger.com
