GL: Sunken yacht in ICW

[Alex Cooke]

Larry, your comment seems pretty insensitive.  I did this stretch at 25 kts
without another boat in sight and without damage to the environment.  I'd be
surprised if you truly meant your statement to sound so insensitive.  

During our loop adventure, we spent as much time at 9 kts as we did at 25
kts and doubt if you could find a boater who said we were inconsiderate to
them, slow or fast.  If I had run into a submerged obstacle, I really would
find it hard to believe that I "deserved" it just because I was going faster
than trawler speed!

I hate to reveal that I'm really the Grinch - but any large yacht going 22
knots in the ICW deserves what they got.
