1) The difficulty in striking Nipple Rock any other way is nearly insurmountable!

2) A perfect direct-strike would be made easier by mounting a flashing light on top of Nipple Rock.

3) Navigating one of these boats is hazardous because the helmsman sits behind an extremely long foredeck, which obscures his (her) vision forward. (And gets even worse when slowing).

4) If the MP rope was intended to "entangle", shouldn't the MPs have been educated to the fact that many boats in this class have rope-cutting "labbed" propellers? (And aren't even safe around flesh and bone--when stopped?)
