Sarcastic? Twenty years ago when I was selling my first map, one marina owner said, "Why do we need a more accurate map? We make our money fixing boats." Yes, he said it tongue-in-cheek, but, as my wife says, there's a bit of truth in everything we say.

Most of my boating has been in salt water.

I realize that the markings on inland waters may have a different scheme but my opinion at first observation was that they are inadequate.

My opinion hasn't changed after thirteen years of Winni boating.

As much as some may desire it to be, this is not a place where everybody comes equipped with charts, experience reading them and Chapman's Piloting committed to memory.

Better marking is needed.
