Derelict and vagabond boats give the cruising community a bad name. It's easy to see why here. Look closely in the above picture's lower right corner. Those white dots are a bane to every waterfront community. Many of the boats have sunk or are in some advanced stage of sinking. Once sunk it becomes the community's problem to clean up the mess. Not sure what the solution is but certainly understand the desire (even if it's misguided) to outlaw anchoring in the hopes of keeping derelicts out.
Still on the mooring in Ft Myers Beach, FL. 0 miles today and 42nm total. DBH
