I agree, for there purpose, they are fine. Yes, you should have a map and even a compass. I have had boaters tell me that they don't need any of that because they a using GPS. More Capt B's. If you don't know your way, and haven't tried to learn how to get around, you shouldn't be there. I have actually seen a boat go through the middle of 4 spars (2 black, 2 red) at full speed. How he didn't tear his boat, I don't know. It wasn't that the spars were not visible. He just didn't know or didn't care. (Rules are for those who don't know what they are doing. - Capt B)
