    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?
