I do recall that the Witches were marked better in years past. I don't know if I'd go as far as saying they were "ringed" by bouys.
As for Orange markers. These would be the same Orange bouys that were discussed in the West Alton sandbar thread as being used to mark a rafting zone?
See the problem? You start straying from accepted and legal navigation aids and no one understands the meaning of them.
As far as the NASWA boat running aground a few years ago, if the comment was accurate and it was at night then an Orange ball wouldn't have helped. I recall my father telling me the Mount even ran aground on the Witches years and years ago.
The Witches could probably use a couple more day bouys and maybe a couple more lighted bouys.
