On the other hand, considering the abuse some water borne bums give the
town, I am surprised that it has taken this long for them to act on the
problem. I personally have seen what the bilge rats have done to the Holy
Hole, once a nice clean secluded anchorage. Last time I was there sunk
"boats" littered the water and garbage on the shore. I met and spoke with a
couple of the residents. My impression was not boaters - but homeless
floaters. Last time I sailed through, I saw some "boats" anchored off the
town that looked like they were wrecks in the making. When they go down who
do you think has to haul away the trash and foots the bill for the
clean-up? Not the previous floaters that's for sure.
Norman could give a better description of the problem as he winters there.
It is unfortunate that we get caught up in the sweep. If any one has an
Idea on how to address this problem which affects all, lets discuss it. May
be that the town officials would be receptive to the input. Any comments Norm?
