Didn't Hardie find it to take the photo or am I assuming too much that he could find his way back to it

Think hardie marked his rock, but Claude's remains unmarked.

Of course, there is also Sam's rock now. He hit it Monday, luckily not with his fin, but his rear RAIL
Took the nice sharp edge off his new CA adjacent to the fin.
And it was fairly high tide, so this rock is very close to the surface.

If you set your camera clock to the same time as your gps you can pinpoint the rock on your gps file. Or set a waypoint. This could be posted as co-ordinates allowing anyone to set a waypoint on their gps and find the rocks (on foot) so they know where they are.
Just a thought.

hey guys , don't forget the Navi has a proximity alarm.

Trouble is if you set it at say 50m from the rock/waypoint the buzzer would sound only 2 seconds (at the most, it seems to have a delay of a second or two) before you hit it if you are on direct track while also sounding if you are sailing past 50m away and missing it by that much.

Good idea yoyo, but if you set it for all the rocks between the Len Howard gazebo thing and Claude's rock. it would go off thru there whatever course you take.

The place is full of rocks, there are some narrow channels thru, do your research, but as YoYo says it's not worth harning yourself, take calculated risks that are based on knowledge.
