    Yes Bob I remember that bar near Livingston well - have bumped over it
    several times. In the 70's they had a range on it supplied by Esso I
    recall. Even so drawing 6ft in my steel yawl I just kept bumping along -
    the important thing was to keep full throttle going, and pick a day when
    there wasn't too much of a sea running.
