If you're not paying attention to your chart it's very easy to be caught in the middle of it before you have any clue. I've done a lot of snorkeling that area and found a fair number of other people's trophy props. Once I saw and heard a boat hit out there so I went out to check on them with the jet ski. They had lost their entire lower unit so we had to tow them in. For any of you Chevy Chase fans, it turns out that it was the Griswold family on "Vacation".

I often wonder why that area has no name. We have "The Witches", "The Graveyard", "Split Ledge" and "The Middle Ground Shoal". I think the area around #84 needs a name like "New Prop Rocks" or something.
